Good News: President Tinubu Mandate NPower Reformation

President Tinubu Mandates Overhaul of N-Power Scheme

President Bola Tinubu has called for a major reform of the N-Power program to make it more effective in empowering Nigerian youth. This update was shared by Dada Olusegun, the President’s Special Assistant on Social Media, through his official Twitter account. The aim is to improve the program’s impact and ensure participants gain skills that lead to real job opportunities.

The newly announced reform focuses on linking young Nigerians to practical job opportunities in the private sector. In addition to training, the program will connect participants directly to the market space, ensuring their acquired skills are put to good use. To support this initiative, over 100,000 items have been procured to help empower youth across the country.

As part of the reform, President Tinubu has approved ₦32.7 billion for the National Social Investment Program in 2025. This funding will help roll out various initiatives, including cooperative clusters, which offer low-interest credit facilities ranging from ₦300,000 to ₦400,000.

These efforts aim to support vulnerable groups, especially women and youth, by helping them start or grow small businesses, thereby improving their standard of living.

The administration’s commitment to the #RenewedHope agenda shows its determination to address ongoing economic challenges while rewarding Nigerians for their resilience. The N-Power program’s reform is a step toward creating sustainable opportunities and improving the lives of many across the country.
