The National Programme Manager of N-Power, Akindele Egbuwalo has disclosed plans to settle beneficiaries of the Batch C programme who have been owed for eight months.

Akindele, in a statement, noted that the Federal Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation had recovered some funds which will be channeled into offsetting outstanding dues as soon as possible

Recall, the Federal Government suspended the N-Power programme last week, stating that the scheme had ghost beneficiaries, while some of its consultants were withholding participants’ funds.

The N-Power programme was established by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari to address youth unemployment with beneficiaries paid N30,000 monthly stipend.
