200,000 Nigerians to start receiving pay on N-power

Atleast over 199,000 youths will start benefiting their monthly allowances from the federal government N-power scheme.

Mr. Laolu Akande made it known to newsmen recently when he said 40% of the selected names came based on the number of applications per state, stressing that  a special mark-up for the 6 states of the northeast and a discretionary addition for states with low numbers of applicants.

According to him “The Buhari Presidency has made very diligent and transparent efforts to ensure that the Social Investment Programmes do not repeat the errors of the past, and the attempt therefore to hurriedly compare the programmes with failed efforts of the past, like SURE-P, even at this early stage is simply baseless.
“There wouldn’t be any middle-men and the payments to be made to the N-Power candidates, the monthly N5,000 to the poorest and most vulnerable among others would be paid directly to them.
“The 200,000 have been selected as promised in the first batch of N-Power job scheme of Buhari and are now being BVN screend to draw their pay.”
He further noted that almost 15,000 Nigerians from Borno State applied in the first application series of N-Power schemes online while, Enugu State had over 20,000 applications online for the N-Power programme; while Zamfara and Bayelsa had over 6,000 and 7,000 respectively.
