For Now, Npower is working on the issues of beneficiaries with invalid account details who are currently undergoing account validation to get their October, November, and December 2022 stipends payments.

The most important thing for any Npower beneficiaries right now is to avoid any situation that will make Npower put their stipends on hold. How can you avoid that? You must not be found absconding from your place of primary assignment PPA.

While the Npower program is initiated to help beneficiaries gain work experience to become employable, it is understandable that beneficiaries can search and apply for other jobs without letting their job search affect their Npower PPA duties.

It is recommended to exit the Npower program if eventually, you secured a better job while serving as a beneficiary.
