N-Power Speaks On Exit Package For Beneficiaries

The Job Creation and Empowerment Initiative of the Social Investment Programme (SIP) of the Nigerian Government has banked on the promise by Sadiya Farouq, the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development that the details of the exit package for N-Power beneficiaries "will be shared soon", AllNews reports.

AllNews understands that Batch A N-Power beneficiaries have been exited from the programme last month, while their Batch B counterparts will be pulled out by this month's ending.

The FG is taking in new intakes - 400, 000.

While the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development has consistently maintained that exit package will be provided to the N-Power beneficiaries they are exiting, their plan has always been vague.

“We have commenced the transitioning of beneficiaries from Batches A and B into government entrepreneurship schemes and engaging private sector bodies to absorb some of the beneficiaries after the completion of psychometric assessment to determine competency and placement into various opportunities," Farouq had said about two weeks ago.

On Saturday, this vagueness caused one Twitter user, Anthony Ibeh to ask what the exit package is like. But it looks like the precise answer to that question is not ready - going by the response of the official Twitter handle of N-Power.

Hi sir.

Not sure we understand what you mean by remaining months.

As per the exit package, the Honourable Minister @Sadiya_farouq has said the details will be shared soon. https://t.co/Lr5FGPPfKW
