— 2nd August 2016
From Juliana Taiwo-Obalonye, Abuja
The Federal Government has
extended applications for jobs portal
“ https://portal.npower.gov.ng/apply/ ” by one month, till
end of August.
Applications are from unemployed
Nigerians graduates and non-graduates
alike.
The application process which
commenced on June 12 was to close on
Monday, July 25.
Thirty six hours after its launch on June
12, the Job Creation Unit in the
Presidency had announced that it
recorded over 400,000 successful
registrations.
The Senior Special Assistant on Media
and Publicity to the Vice President Laolu
Akande, said in a statement, the
extention was to pull in more potentially
qualified candidates and expand the
opportunity base around and across the
country.
He said the new deadline for the receipt
of applications is now Wednesday,
August 31, 2016.
According to him, the grace period was
provided in order to keep its promise of
empowering and uplifting young Nigerians
by improving their livelihood and creating
opportunities.
Akande said N-Power was one of the
initiatives of the N500 billion President
Muhammadu Buhari’s Social Investment
Programme designed to empower young
Nigerians with life-long skills to find or
create work.
The programme is segmented into three:
N-Power Teachers Corps Agriculture and
Health related jobs; N-Power Knowledge
for ICT and N-Power Build for building
services and artisanal training
“N-Power is targeted at young Nigerians
aged between 18 and 35 and is aimed at
enlisting a total of 600,000 young
Nigerians in phases, and under different
sectors, in the largest capacity
development and empowerment effort
yet in the country.
“The Federal Government will continue to
work with the State Governments through
their respective focal persons on Social
Investments to ensure that N-Power is
diverse and inclusive.
“This extension presents an opportunity
for persons who have not had the
opportunity to apply to do so now. This
will also allow those yet to complete the
application process to ensure they see
the process through as incomplete
applications will not be processed”, he
said.
Akande said that the Federal Government
will publicise the selection criteria before
the application process closes.
According to him, modalities relating to
the enlistment process which was to
commence yesterday will no longer hold
due to the demand for extension by
many Nigerians from across several
states.
The Presidential Media aide noted that
the Federal Government was committed
to ensuring that through N-Power, young
Nigerians will acquire the skills and
knowledge to become the driving forces
of Nigeria’s economic growth and social
development.
