Current news on npower stipend
I'm happy to help! However, I need to clarify that "Npower stipend" is a term that is specific to the Nigerian government's N-Power program, which is a social investment program designed to provide financial support to young Nigerians.
As of my knowledge cutoff in 2022, the N-Power program has undergone several changes, and the stipend amount has been adjusted accordingly. Here are some recent updates:
- N-Power Batch C: In 2021, the Federal Government of Nigeria launched the N-Power Batch C program, which aims to engage 400,000 young Nigerians. The stipend for this batch is N30,000 (approximately $80 USD) per month.
- N-Power Batch A and B: For the earlier batches (A and B), the stipend was N30,000 (approximately $80 USD) per month. However, in 2020, the government increased the stipend to N50,000 (approximately $130 USD) per month for these batches.
- Payment schedule: The N-Power stipend is usually paid on a monthly basis, and the payment schedule may vary depending on the batch and the payment method (e.g., bank transfer or mobile money).
Please note that these updates are subject to change, and I recommend verifying the information with official sources, such as the N-Power website or government announcements, for the most up-to-date information.
