The Federal Government says it will begin the non-graduates scheme component of the N-Power programme in July.
Senior Special Assistant to the President on Job Creation (N-Power Scheme), Afolabi Imoukhuede said this at a news forum in Abuja, The Nation reports.
“We are hopeful that by June/July we should deploy those ones in different batches across the country and FCT.
“So it is worthy of note that those who applied for that programme (non-graduates) should just stay rested.
“The fact that we have not deployed you doesn’t mean that we have forgotten you.

“We have all your details, we have all your contacts and we will deal with them.’’
“The non-graduate component is more of skills development and vocation programme.
