As part of the N-Power exit plan, the federal government says beneficiaries who have concluded the two-year job programme will be engaged to access permanent job opportunities or business prospects.

The new development was announced on Wednesday, January 20, by the minister of humanitarian affairs, disaster management and social development, Sadiya Farouq.

Hajiya Farouq who spoke at the 4th annual review of the Home Grown School Feeding Programme (NHGSFP), however, said the new plan is for Batches A and B of the N-Power scheme, The Nation reports.

It was gathered that under the plan which is operated by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), about 200,000 beneficiaries will be employed as financial services operators on the platform of Shared Agent Network Expansion Facility (SANEF).
