She said: “ let me reiterate the commitment of President Muhammadu Buhari, to addressing poverty and youth unemployment in Nigeria, through the National

Social Investment Programme NSIP. The graduate and non-graduate components of the N-Power programme have been expanded to provide job opportunities for 12,981 unemployed youths in Lagos State under Batch C, following the successfully exiting of 16,694 youths under Batches A & B.

“Under the NSIP, the federal government is investing over N4.6 billion for the training, tooling and payment of monthly stipends on the Batch C beneficiaries. This is a tremendous direct injection of resources at the grassroots and in the hands of the youths.

“With Mr. President’s approval for expansion of the NSIP, we will double jobs and wealth creation opportunities for the teeming youths in Lagos State soon. I, therefore, acknowledge the support and cooperation of the State Government and other stakeholders towards the realisation of Mr. President’s agenda of lifting 100 million Nigerians out of poverty.”
