N-Power: Flashback To When Afolabi 'Promised Beneficiaries Permanent Appointment' (Video)

A video has emerged of Afolabi Imoukhuede, the N-Power-Job Creation Cluster Lead of the National Social Investment Programme (NSIP) promising beneficiaries permanency if they ensure the successful reelection of his principal, President Muhammadu Buhari, Allnews reports.

The Edo-born technocrat who had prior to the 2019 general elections pleaded with beneficiaries to once more vote President Buhari to enhance their continuity in the famed programme, was quoted to have said last Wednesday that the N-Power heads are in talks with state governments for an exit package for beneficiaries.

Many have slammed him for a statement credited to him in the Live Facebook chat that giving permanent employment to 500, 000 volunteers under the scheme is "impracticable".

They wonder the sudden change in tone and lamented the 'deceit'.

Allnews understands that a chunk of the beneficiaries desire absorption into civil service - state of federal. And they have been vocal about their demand.

Recently, Lagos beneficiaries staged a peaceful protest to drive home their message.

"Your quest for permanence is directly tied to the continuity of Mr. President in office. So, I wanna turn the table to you.

"So, you can be sure that in his continuity, your quest for permanence will also be taken care of," Imoukhuede said at that time.

Meanwhile, President Buhari has since been spending his second term in office and it is still constant news of imminent disengagement of the pioneer beneficiaries.
