Social Welfare: Why N-power Is Better Than It's Predecessor by thewesternking: 12:49pm On Aug 31, 2018
N-Power is the federal government program under the social investment program for job creation and Youth empowerment initiative launched in 2016 and still running till date.

N-Power is a platform for diversifying the economy. N-Power prepares young Nigerians for a knowledge economy where, equipped with world-class skills and certification, they become innovators and movers in the domestic and global markets.

Sure-P, now defunct was established in 2012 and ran till 2015 when it was shut down due to the many irregularities and scams. Sure-P was marred with irregularities mainly because the stipend wasn't being paid directly to beneficiaries and as such left room for misappropriation, N-Power doesn't leave room for such as beneficiaries have to provide their bank details upon enrollment.

In the three years for which sure-p was active, only 41, 000 youths benefited from the program. Sure-P trained and mentored for One year on a monthly Federal government Stipend of 18,000. N-power has been active for 2 years and has empowered over 400,000 both unemployed graduates and non-graduates.

N-power empowers youths with the necessary industrial skills on a monthly federal government stipend of 30,000 and are given tablets that contains information necessary for their specific engagement and continuous training and development during the programme.

Sure-P was intended to provide fresh graduates with short term employment to help sharpen their skill and gain working experience. N power is designed to help young Nigerians acquire and develop long life skills and become solution providers in their community and become key players in both domestic and global market.

At least if you want to defend your master, do so without lies

Truth
Sure-P engaged far less number of people than NPower

Lies
1. Monthly Stipend was still 30,000 not 18k.
2. The stipends were paid directly to the bank account of the beneficiary. The only difference was that you supply your bank information at the orientation ceremony after selection.


Lastly, Sure-P never delayed payment

However, N-power has tried in that, it has engaged far larger number of people and also the volunteers also get devices from the program
