Skills and knowledge are the driving forces of economic growth and social development. Despite the current high level of unemployment, harnessing Nigeria’s young demography through appropriate skill development efforts provides an opportunity to achieve inclusion and productivity within the country. Large-scale skill development is the main policy thrust of the N-Power Programme.

N-Power is also linked to the Federal Government’s policies in the economic, employment and social development arenas. N-Power addresses the challenge of youth unemployment by providing a structure for large scale and relevant work skills acquisition and development while linking its core and outcomes to fixing inadequate public services and stimulating the larger economy. The modular programmes under N-Power will ensure that each participant will learn and practice most of what is
necessary to find or create work. The N-Power Volunteer Corp involves a massive deployment of 500,000 trained graduates who will assist to improve the inadequacies in our public services in education, health and civic education. Some of these graduates will also help in actualising Nigeria’s economic and strategic aspirations of achieving food security and self-sufficiency.

N-Power will also be a platform for diversifying the economy. N-Power is preparing young Nigerians for a knowledge economy where, equipped with world-class skills and certification, they become innovators and movers in the domestic and global markets. Nigeria will have a pool of software developers, hardware service professionals, animators, graphic artists, building services professionals, artisans and others. N-Power also focuses on providing our non-graduates with relevant technical and business skills that enhance their work outlook and livelihood.

In sum, N-Power is segmented as follows:

N-Power Volunteer Corps- 500,000 graduates
N-Power Knowledge – 25,000 non-graduates
N-Power Build- 75,000 non-graduates

WHO CAN APPLY

N-Power aspires to provide a platform where most Nigerians can access skills acquisition and development. At this time however, the initial modular programmes in N-Power are designed for Nigerian citizens between the ages of 18 and 35. You will need to meet the minimum requirements (if any) for your respective programme. Generally, selection is based:
1. on your expression of a genuine interest in whichever area you decide;
2. passing the relevant tests;
3. your willingness to push yourself beyond your comfort zone; and
4. ability to show a flair to develop all the skills you need to be the best you can be.

N-Power Programmes


N-Power Teach
N-Power Teach Volunteers will help improve basic education delivery in Nigeria. N-Power Teach Volunteers will be deployed as teacher assistants in primary schools around Nigeria. They will not replace the current teachers, but will work as support teachers across Nigeria, assisting with teaching, school management and other functions within the schools. Where possible, they will also assist in taking basic education to children in marginalised communities.

N-Power Health
N-Power Health Volunteers will help improve and promote preventive healthcare in their communities to vulnerable members of the society including pregnant women and children and to families and individuals.

N-Power Agro
N-Power Agro Volunteers will provide advisory services to farmers across the country. They will disseminate the knowledge that has been aggregated by the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development in the area of extension services. They will also gather data of Nigeria’s agriculture assets.

When Musa was in JSS2, his teacher always yelled @
him, calling him a waste of product
& failure in life".....
One day, Musa's grandma came
2 school 2 check how her grandson was doing. The teacher told her quite frankly that she had never seen such a dumb boy all her life b4; & advised her 2 withdraw him frm school, becos schooling 4
Musa would be a total waste of time & money.
The grandma was
shocked @d teacher's comment
She withdrew her grandson frm d school & relocated him 2 Maiduguri..
**** 25 years later**** The teacher was
diagnosed wit a cancer.
All d doctors she met advised her 2 do surgery & its only a
certain doctor in d whole of Nigeria(practicing In
Maiduguri) could perform dis procedure) wit no alternative, d
teacher agreed 2 hv d surgery
. .Fortunately, It was successful. When she woke up some
hours after d surgery, she saw a handsome
young doctor
smiling down @ her. She was on artificial
respiration frm a
machine dat provides her oxygen.
She wanted 2 thank him but could nt speak. She looked side ways and suddenly
began to express shock & her face started 2 turn
pale; she frantically made attempts to raise her hand &
tell d doctor somethin but couldn't talk. She struggled, she fought-hard but couldn't talk, then she died. The young doctor was shocked. He tried 2 find out what's
wrong.
Eventually, it was found out dat it was Musa (working as a cleaner in d hospital) who had disconnected d teacher oxygen machine 2 connect his phone charger.
Lol
Wait ooooo... .. Don't tell me u thought
Musa became d doctor.....
If I hear.... This is not
