N-power: Permanency Imminent as They Successfully Impacted(3)Sectors.

By Rowlandgate.

The National Social Investment Program of Nigeria is a social welfare initiative created by the Federal government of Nigeria in 2015 under the direction of the National Social Investment Office. The Program was created to ensure a more equitable distribution of resources to vulnerable populations, including children, youth, and women.

 Under President Muhammadu Buhari the office has created four programs to address poverty and help increase economic development. The N-Power (Nigeria) program provides young Nigerians with job training and education, as well as a monthly stipend of 30,000 Nigerian naira (USD $83.33).

Since the inception of N-Power program (N-Teach, N- Agric.,N-Health,N-Tax), The wide unemployment rate was drastically reduced as a result of that program. About five hundred thousand (500,000) youth were engaged and still performing actively in their various place of Primary Assignment.

The volunteers have successfully impacted three(3) sectors, the first is education Sector, in Nigeria public schools. it is a fact that teachers prior to the engagement of N-Power volunteers are inadequate. With the introduction of N-Teach, the schools were equipped with young, vibrant and knowledgeable volunteers and in the last two years public schools have seen the impact.

The second sector in which N-Power volunteers have greatly impacted is Agricultural Sector, it must be noted that to ensure the food security in the country, agricultural sector is cardinal. The N-Agro Volunteers have been able to provide extension services to the rural farmers using new technologies to improve the productivities of the rural farmers.

The third sector in which volunteers have successfully impacted is the health centres across the country. The N-Health Volunteers have done a great job in assisting the health workers to render health services to the patients.

At this point the government should think of no other thing rather than giving permanent employment to the N-Power volunteers so that these three sectors which have been greatly impacted will not experience setback.

The federal government under President Muhammadu Buhari should take advantage of the experience these young people have gathered in the last two years and give them a permanent Job.
