The Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, Dr Betta Edu, says plans are underway to re-jig the N-Power scheme to accommodate more people and ensure prompt payment of beneficiaries’ stipends.
Edu revealed this in a statement by her Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Rasheed Zubair, in Abuja.
She said the ministry plans to establish humanitarian hubs across the 774 local government areas in the country, adding that it would be a long-term goal towards eradicating poverty in Nigeria.
According to her, the hubs would accommodate homegrown commodities, which would be sold at cheaper rates to Nigerians.
