The Acting Kwara State Director, National Orientation Agency, Mr. Segun Adeyemi, says most of the problems encountered in the first phase of N power programme started at the registration process.

Mr. Adeyemi said this on Thusday at a one day awareness and sensitization programme for unemployed youths in Kwara Central organized by the office of the Senior Special Assistant to the State Governor on Youth Empowerment.

The Acting NOA Director cautioned against registration by proxy, stressing the need for all the participants to get all their bio data information correct, active e-mail addresses and bank verification number.

Mr. Adeyemi warned that If information provided are incorrect or false, it would lead to automatic disqualification.

He said the Agency is more concerned about the welfare of the participants, saying that people that are working and undergraduates are disqualified from participating in the programme.

In his goodwill message, the lawmaker representing Ilorin West and North at the State House of Assembly, Mr. AbdulRafiu AbdulRahman, lauded the sensitization campaign embarked upon by the office of the Senior Special Assistant on Youth Empowerment and charged the unemployed youths to key into the programme.

Mr. AbdulRahman, said the House of Assembly keyed into the programme towards alleviating youth unemployment in the state.
