The 36-state representatives of N-Power volunteers plus the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) on Wednesday said that the Nigeria Governors' Forum (NGF) and the Federal Executive Council (FEC) are 'currently discussing our transition mode', AllNews reports.
In a statement signed by Kabiru Aliyu Pelemi, the National President of N-Power Beneficiaries, which was sighted by AllNews, exited beneficiaries of the famed scheme are asked to disregard any call for protests as regards their delayed transition.
Recall that Batch A beneficiaries exited the N-Power programme on June 30 after four years in the famed scheme, while their Batch B counterparts officially made their exit on July 31st - after two years.
Meanwhile, these Nigerian youths are currently in the dark regarding their exit/transition package.
"It came to my notice, the report of fake protest, purportedly slated to hold tomorrow (Thursday) at Abuja, using my name as the convener of the protest," the statement by the 36 States and FCT N-Power Representatives' Forum read.
"I wish to categorically state that the 36 States and FCT Npower Volunteers Representatives did not issue such directive. Neither did we secure any permit from the Nigerian Police.
"Please, as you could see recently on media, the governors' forum in conjunction with the Federal Executive Council (FEC) is currently discussing our transition mode."
The statement added:
"Few of our representatives equally engaged with the Permanent Secretary (PS), Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs Disaster Management and Social Development, yesterday (Tuesday) on how to fast-track the transition process.
"Please, disregard any purported call for protest for now. It is just media propaganda.
"Let's give the government the benefits of a few more weeks with rigorous engagement, after which you shall hear from us.
"Stay safe. Aluta Continua, Victoria Ascerta."
