This will enable you know that you’re talking to the right person, and that you’re in the safe hands.

A guy told us he called one of them names yesterday, because he’s uninformed about the new development.

Courtesy matters!
The Presidency says the Federal Government will begin the non-graduates scheme component of the N-Power programme in July.

Afolabi Imoukhuede, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Job Creation (N-Power Scheme), disclosed this at the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) Forum in Abuja.

He said N-Power had two broad components, namely: graduate and non-graduate schemes.

“We are hopeful that by June/July we should deploy those ones in different batches across the country and FCT. So it is worthy of note that those who applied for that programme (non-graduates) should just stay rested.

“The fact that we have not deployed you doesn’t mean that we have forgotten you. We have all your details, we have all your contacts and we will deal with them.’’

Mr. Imoukhuede explained that the non-graduate component of the programme was designed to empower the beneficiaries with vocational skills.

“The non-graduate component is more of skills development and vocation programme. For vocational training, we have construction work, automobile technicians, technology, which is hardware and software.

“They will come in for a programme and three months they will go and (also do) apprenticeship for nine months.

“It is like one year engagement for them; while they are undergoing training they will get some stipends and they we will also provide them with necessary tools and consumables.”

Mr. Imoukhuede added that the scheme would also partner with employers for the apprenticeship programme and also give the volunteers some stipends.

According to him, that type of programme will not only be empowering the trainees, but transferring skills to them for life as well.

The presidential aide said the office had been working with relevant stakeholders to ensure successful implementation of the scheme.

“We have been working behind the scene; we have signed MoU with our partners, Automotive Development Council of Nigeria, for the automotive training.

“We have got quite some big partners and we are just finalising all our arrangements.”

He said while the process of procurement of the needed goods and consumables were going on in the office, the fast-track process was also going on in the Ministry of Budget and National Planning as well.

According to him, N-Power is the job creation component of the Social Investment Programme (SIP) of the current administration.

He said the office started working on the implementation as soon as the present administration was inaugurated on May 29, 2015.

He said by December 2015, the administration had come up with a blueprint on how to keep the promise it made to implement the scheme.

Mr. Imoukhuede described SIP as the most ambitious programme of the Federal Government, adding that so far, government had committed N500 billion to the programme.

“The programme received N500 billion in 2016, but unfortunately, it came at the time when the economy was grappling with low revenue,’’ he said.

The social investment programme has five components. They include the N-Power, being the job creation component; Home Grown School Feeding; the Conditional Cash Transfer; and the Government Enterprise and Empowerment Programme (GEEP).

The last component is the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Junior.

Please which number do they call with? The number on their website or they have other numbers not displayed there?

Major N-Power Groups and Pages on Facebook | Add Yours if it's not here
N-power is one of the units of Social Investment Programme (SIP)  of President Muhammadu Buhari-led government.

When it came on board, social media platforms were created by both the government and volunteers to help spread update.

Major N-Power Groups on Facebook and Pages

Below Facebook Groups are the major convergence of beneficiaries.

N-power Volunteers on Facebook

Npowerng is the official Facebook page of the programme. It's created to disperse cogent info about the programme to help corps stay in touch.

This page isn't just for updates, but to as well attend to inquiries from troubled applicants.

It's not just on Facebook, but also tweets @npower_ng
With 65,530 likes (still growing).

This Page without gainsaying is the most AUTHORITATIVE NPower Page on Facebook.

It's been criticised as being not active, but it's simply the BEST PAGE you can like if youre on Facebook and an applicant.


N-POWER COMMUNITY

This is a public group on Facebook for npower volunteers to join and for prospective corps who want to stay up to date as updates are concerned.

Founder: Israel Bubaraye Wellington Jeremiah

The name looks too long though, we suspect it's a combination of the names of fouders, we can't confirm this at this time.
Member : 203, 657 (still counting)

This is one of the earliest npower group when the programme was launched. The founder of this group tapped into the opportunity of large number of unemployed youths to take a step further by even opening a blog for the purpose of updating beneficiaries.

With the number of group members, N-power Community prides itself as the LARGEST convergence of volunteers across the country irrespective of States, LG, religion and colour.

It's members are more than the number of the 200,000 shortlisted for the first batch. This means that those who are expecting second batch are also member of this group.
Kudos to the founders. Join the group HERE 

NPOWER DISCUSSION GROUP

This is another authoritative facebook group dedicated for updates on the programme. This group has the second largest group members.

It used to be a public group, but it has since changed its status to closed group. Just like N-POWER COMMUNITY, this group has stepped up to have a special blog for discussions and updates.

Member: 107, 027 Join them on Facebook 

[/b]N-POWER VOLUNTEER GROUP - ANAMBRA STATE

This group has been streamlined for volunteers in Anambra State.
Members: This group has 805 members as at time of compiling this list.

We expect it to grow as the day passes by.

Do you want to join the group?  Check it out on Facebook[b]

NPOWER KOGI

Kogi, the confluence state has its own facebook group. The disadvantage of this group is that it's closed.

We believe that it should be open since npower itself is a public youth empowerment programme, but whatever the reason of the founder of this group is, we say kudos.

Members : It has 924 members.

This group is right here.

It's a closed group

NpowerNG Solutions (#Npower Nigeria)

This is one of the youngest Npower group on Facebook. It's founded by infobase, one of the websites that has been a resource centre for npower news and updates.

As a result of the need to concentrate more on other burning issues, the founders of infobase decided to have a separate group exclusively for npower beneficiaries in the country.

Within a short period of time, NpowerNG Solutions has provided answers to some of npower questions.

Members: 415 (still growing)

It has also gone to register itself on the blogshere www.npowerportalng..com where it's published unique and informative articles.

NpowerNG Solutions tweets @NpowerngS

NPOWER VOLUNTEER (LAGOS STATE CHAPTER)

Lagos is one of the states that started had slight hitches with verification exercise. While some other states verified volunteers on time, Lagos began January 2017.

In view of this a group was found to be a meeting point for volunteers who are based in Lagos.

We're aware that more than two groups exist on Facebook for this purpose, but we're giving this group preference.

Member: 1,402

Considering the population of Lagos, we expected Lagos NPOWER VOLUNTEER to have the highest number, but we understand that most of them either belong to a generalized group or belong to group that's more of [truncated by WhatsApp]

Please kindly provide assistance in the N-POWER Anambra group. Thanks.

badbreathcure101:
because iphones have evolved to be very powerful and has achieved great processing capabilities..it will take an Android with real powerful Snapdragon processors n up to 8gig rams to match that... [/b]iPhones are Powerful than most pcs today[b] true or false??

I don't know about the bolded. I hope we all know that processors and RAM are quite different things? And in this thread we're talking about RAM and its management.
The major work of ram is to keep opened apps in the memory for easy access & multitasking, and that's where optimization comes in. If the manufacturer did a good job with their optimization, apps would run smoothly and will be well kept in the memory. People talk about iPhones as though they're flawless, I once used iPhone 6 with 1gb ram and there were glitches here and there from time to time.

badbreathcure101:
Even 12gig will never do well with Android, whereas even as low as 1gig is enough for an iPhone to give u it's best

If 1gb ram was so good on iPhones, why did they ditch it and move to 2gb ram? Soon iphones 7s and 8 will be coming with 3gb ram or even more.

morax101:
RAM size doesn't depict how fast a device will be but the processor power and clock speed. I've once used a device with 4G RAM but I am so naive to check the processor maker and clock speed. I sold the device off because it's just useless when it comes performing some tasks and 1G RAM iPhone 6s does them with ease. I must say RAM ain't the determining factor at all when it comes to speed and performance.

iPhone 6s is 2gb ram not 1gb.

2gb ram in any phone with good optimization will perform very well. 3gb is like standard now but anything above 4gb ram is just a marketing gimmick cos in real life you may not notice the difference in ram management in a 6gb ram phone and a 3gb ram phone.

eezeribe:
When it comes to technology,Nigerians don't have a choice.we are the dumping ground.
Even the likes of Apple and Samsung,specifically set up their Chinese factories for servicing Africa including Nigeria,among others.

You just complained and contributed nothing to what is on ground.

Baroba:
Ahead of anker? hmm that will be saying something, Anker is considered the best powerbank worldwide, they do have a big reputation..

In op's list, Romoss is already ahead of Anker (3rd and 4th respectively) but I'm arguing that Romoss should be 1st ahead of Xiaomi

I think Romoss should be top on the list.

Well, I believe she can be traced should she decide to act funny. So she simply did the needful given the circumstances.

The phone recorded insane score on Antutu, has insane gpu. Seems everything about the phone is insane. Hope the users won't wake up one morning and run mad.

fallout87:
She's making fake gucci and fake versace and you want us to applaud her?

How do they have the same UI?
Is there something I'm missing?

How did you and your friend get the phones?

My friend bought through a guy on Nairaland named Kulimart (who we don't see again) and I bought through AliExpress. So it's difficult to lay hands on. It's not something you'll go to market and buy without having to pay someone you didn't know and start praying he delivers.
Ok let's say the UIs are not the same exactly but they're almost the same. Once you touch any, you'll know instantly that it's a China phone.

rookidmart:
We have different opinions.

Let's leave it that way.

The other parts of your post are irrelevant because it's obvious you haven't handled a Xiaomi phone before.

I've used Redmi Note 2 and my friend used Mi 4, so technically I used Mi 4 too cos I was always handling his own.

rookidmart:
You can get the Xiaomi Mi 5 for that amount with Snapdragon 820, 3/32/64 etc

So in your opinion, Xiaomi is classy? I don't think so. It's still the same Chinese phones. The same user interface nothing different. Almost the same software.
Then Xiaomi is more difficult to lay hands on.

henry007:
If you're a gionee user and you don't trust that it won't heat up why you killing yourself, look at another brand na.

I haven't actually used any Gionee device in the past because when Tecno came out with Phantom A, i loved the design and i bought it - Gionee came has very ugly phones then(eyesore). Since then, they've been releasing their ugliest devices to Nigeria.

I know this coz i used to work in computer village. When ever i see Gionee stand, i'm like wtf the same poor design on their expensive and cheap phones, then i visit google and see beautiful ones. They're not ready for the Nigerian market, i guess.

I'm not killing myself pls.

Is it not because they don't have customers to attend to, that's why they have time to be tweeting about Man United.

PureMe01:
good for u dude.u need it,I Dont.if I budget #95,000 for phone purchase alone,definitely not gionee.[b][/b]classy flagship phones would even sell less.[b][/b]gionee,tecno and itel deceiving Nigerians since 1980BC.outragious prices for mediocre devices!!!

Which classy flagship phone can you get at that amount? Less than 95k, I'm interested.

jboixxx:
who tell you sey na 64G? 32 falafala.

I don't own the phone yet but GSMArena says it's 64gb

henry007:
Which one is S6s

If you mean samsung s6, the snapdragon 810 was dead on arrival in the heating department. Good thing some shipped with Exynos chipset

No. I'm talking about Gionee S6s. Check it out if u don't know about it.

henry007:
I don't think a phone like Gionee would heat up in 2017, especially not with android Nougat.

I would love to compare with Infinix phones from S2 pro to the Zero 4 plus.

Have you seen any of my comparison videos?

Just like I didn't think my S6s would be getting hot. Overheating is not a problem of Android version, it's processors and the company's UI that determines whether their phones overheat or not.

durasome:
Glo was it for me but now they have slashed it down now,half to whatever you use to have. Then with just #100 you get 100mb,#200-200mb etc but now you get half of these.even at that,they are still the best.

#100 and #200 for 100mb and 200mb respectively are still available.

Ok let's see, you need advice whether or not to screw her abi? At 26, you're still asking this question. Ok.
Later come and ask us whether you should eat food or drink poison one day.

henry007:
Why does this phone have a cheap glossy look?
Do an unboxing video.

It doesn't have glossy look. It has this mate finish, I've played around with the black one and it looked premium. I'm just concerned about the phone getting hot easily. I don't know whether over heating is a Gionee thing or it's my Gionee S6s that likes getting hot.

mine85:
How much?

Many places I checked, they're selling 95k

RuthC:
Please who has purchased and use the Gionee A1 shoulkd drop a comment about the phone please...

Maybe no one has bought it yet.

just2endowed:
Awesome

So I should contact you on WhatsApp for details

just2endowed:
Which one do u intend to buy

The slim one. Poly 10

With those phones that easily get hot like hot plates.

Honestly tell us, does this phone get hot while using it?

invincible560:
that's because you have not exhausted the 6month they gave u

So why is everybody complaining? It's supposed to last for 6 months yet they're claiming theirs didn't reach 6 months b4 MTN terminated it and that's what I'm trying to tell them that it's not true.
