Npower News: Latest Update On Npower Payment. About 80% beneficiaries of the Federal Government of Nigeria-organised Npower scheme have received their September and October stipend.
Those who are yet to receive theirs are encouraged to exercise patience and also verify their details.
However, the November and December stipends are still pending. There are reports that the stipends will be paid to all beneficiaries in the first week of February.
It had been earlier reported that the stipend has been approved by the Federal Ministry for Humanitarian Affairs but there might be a delay in payment due to Nigeria Inter-Bank Settlement Scheme (NIBSS) validation, as this validation takes quite a while.
In view of this, graduate beneficiaries who are yet to resume are at their Place of Primary Assignment (PPA) on Wednesday, January 17, 2022 are advised to do so. This is to avoid being dismissed from the scheme.
The NPower scheme, set up by the President of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari on 8 June 2016 to address the issues of youth unemployment and help increase social development is currently undergoing backlash on social media for its failure to meet up with expectations.
The NPower scheme is categorized into Graduate Programmes and Non-Graduate Programmes and is targeted towards providing solutions to the nation’s under-developed public services like education, healthcare, and civic engagement.
The scheme recently included the resignation option on its portal, a development which has generated criticisms from the beneficiaries of the scheme, especially on social media.
Despite the scheme’s inability to meet up with payment of stipends, it still plans to enlist additional 400,000 Nigerian youths into the programme.
Meanwhile, all NPower batch-c applicants are expected to update their profile and take test for possible shortlisting to the next stage of the NPower application process. According to the National Social Investment Management System (NASIMS), all successful candidates will be sent a mail and given directions on the next stage while unsuccessful candidates can re-apply for the next batch of the programme as soon as it opens for application.
