Since assuming office on 29th May, 2023, following the expiration of Ex-president Muhammadu Buhari’s eight-years tenure, president Bola Ahmed Tinubu has terminated all the empowerment programs of the previous administration which were setup to cushion the effect of rampant unemployment among the Nigerian youths.
We realized that many beneficiaries of the terminated social investment programs such as N-Power, Trader Moni, and Anchor Borrowers are still in the dark because they don’t know what next to do.
