N-Power:Federal Government Set To Re-open Portal For Another Batch

The Presidency has promised to open the portal of the federal government N-Power volunteer corps programme next month, to allow more unemployed graduates to register for the second phase of the programme. The Presidency last December employed 200,000 unemployed graduates under the N-Power scheme with the promise to employ additional 300,000 soon. Senior special assistant on job creation and youth employment to the president, Afolabi Imoukhuede, speaking to newsmen after meeting with Governor Ibikunle Amosun in Abeokuta, said that more youths will be given the opportunity to register under the scheme very soon. On his visit to Ogun state, Imoukhuede said it is to address various issues of non payment raised by some of the volunteers.
