2017 N-power Registration closing Date Extended – www.npower.gov.ng – N-Power registration portal, N-Power recruitment test procedure.
The 2017 N-power Registration extended by two weeks. This is to enable many graduate Nigerians who would want to be part of it to do so. The acting President of Nigeria Prof. Osinbajo call for extension of the N-power Registration for 2 weeks to allow more Nigerians graduate youth to register. He did this because he felt that there are a lot of qualified graduates who are not aware of the programme yet.
Meanwhile the Assessment Test for those who had registered is on-going. Those who had already registered are being contacted via SMS texts with necessary information to go on with the test.
The test is online.
N-Power is an initiative of the Social Investment Programme of the Federal Government of Nigeria designed to empower young Nigerians with life long skills to find, create work and acquire work experience.
N-power Registration Continuity:
In my previous publications, the N-power Recruitment exercise was to close on the 13th of July 2017, but the Acting President Yemi Osinbajo has extended the N-power Registration Scheme by two extra weeks to allow more Nigerian Youth to take part.
His Excellency Prof. Yemi Osinbajo disclosed this to news men, at the Federal Government’ N-power call centre in Abuja on Thursday 14th July 2017.
In fact, over two million applicants applied for these only 300,000 vacancies , reason why many are questioning reasons for the date extension.
The closing date is now 27th of July 2017.
