As they await their March stipend settlement, the mood of downcast remains among beneficiaries of the Federal Government’s N-Power scheme, Allnews observed.
Checks by Allnews on public platforms showed that many beneficiaries of a scheme aspiring to be the largest post-tertiary employment programme in Africa, continue to lament the non-payment of their monthly stipend.
Close to 500, 000 Nigerian graduates in the scheme are entitled to N30, 000 (approximately 83 US Dollars) monthly pay. However, as at the time of publishing this report, they are yet to get paid their March stipend.

#Npower_ng D delay of Npower beneficiaries' stipends is becoming a normally since Mrs umar Farouq took over this ministry. What excuse does she have to delay d payment now? Is there any Federal Govt worker that has not been paid?

If you could treat Repentant Boko Haram members like First Class citizens,don't treat over 450 thousand Npower Graduates who have done no harm to the country like aliens and beggars. #Pay NPower March Stipends#
