This online news medium reported that N-Creative beneficiaries started their training on Friday, the 5th of July.
Drilling is on and going by some of the comments shared by N-Power on social media, beneficiaries are grateful for the opportunity.
I trust the Federal Government to come through because I had seen my friends benefit from N-Power Teach, Agro and Health.

N-Power Creative is an opportunity to explore other creative opportunities and I believe this industry will be like hot cake in a little while.
