N-Power: Incompetent Minister Sadiya Umar Farouq Continues To Provoke N-Power Volunteers
N-Power Volunteers of the Federal Government N-Power Programme, have taken to social media to continue to express their uttermost displeasure with the manner in which Sadiya Umar Farouq, Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development, is and has been handling the N-Power Scheme.
Since assuming office in 2019, Farouq is often accused of delaying N-Power Volunteers' stipends unnecessarily, and she is being criticised by some of the exited N-Power Batch A and B Volunteers for 'disengaging them from the scheme without a proper exit plan and structure in place'.
Most N-Power beneficiaries (between the ages of 18 and 39) have described the Minister Farouq's portfolio (Humanitarian Affairs and Disaster Management) as an aberration, nicknaming the Zamfara-born politician the 'Disaster Minister'.
In fact, as at the time of publishing this report, over 300, 000 N-Power Batch B Volunteers have not been paid their N30, 000 (79 US Dollars) stipend for July.
It would be recalled that in a Twitter poll conducted by prominent online news agency, Sahara Reporters and Daily Trust about a month ago, Sadiya Umar Farouq was conveniently voted as the worst-performing minister in President Muhammadu Buhari's cabinet.
This is coming amidst ceaseless complaints from N-Power beneficiaries of the N-Power scheme, a core component of Nigeria's National Social Investment Programmes (NSIPs).
