“Under the guidelines provided by the programme, N-Teach & N-Health are open only to graduates while graduates and non-graduates are eligible to apply to N-Agro as well as N- Build, N-Creative and N-Tech,”the statement said.

The Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development Sadiya Umar Farouq noted that “by enrolling a new Batch, the N-Power programme (a key component of the National Social Investment Programme) is providing opportunities for more Nigerian youths to gain skills for employability and entrepreneurship. It is also providing a pipeline of skilled Nigerians to help rebuild the economy post-Covid 19.”

She assured eligible Nigerians aged 18-35 given opportunity to participate in Batch-C enrollment of the use of a transparent and hybrid system which leverages technology as well as traditional means of enrolment while prioritising women and people living with disabilities because PLWD make up 15% of our population.

Announcing the Ministry’s plans to streamline the programme for efficiency, the Ministry had noted that “comprehensive details for the new batch C will be announced in the coming weeks.”
