N-Power is a youth empowerment initiative sponsored by the Federal Government of Nigeria.
The scheme provides 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.
Nigerian citizens between the ages of 18 and 35 are accommodated into programmes under N-Power to ensure that each participant will learn and practice most of what is necessary to find or create work.
