  • The recruitment and selection process can be confirmed to be transparent, credible, and fair, as an online method was adopted.
  • Beneficiaries present during the flag off event were all given engagement letters by the Hon. Minister of Humanitarian Affairs.

The Minister, Hon. Sadiya U. Farouq went further to encourage and advise the Npower Batch C Stream 1 beneficiaries to utilize the golden opportunity.

The Npower program is one of the several programs under National Social Investment Programs (NSIP).

The vision of the current administration, led by president Muhammadu Buhari to uplift one hundred million (100,000,000) youths from poverty before the year 2030, is still on the move.

Gradually, more youths are being employed, or made employers of labour through NSIP.

This alone has made FG to acknowledge the positive results, and commend their work so far by creating more programs/initiatives.
