Were There Really Winners In N-Power Impact Series?
Back in November, prior to the 2019 Nigerian General Elections, one of the Federal Government‘s social investment programmes, N-Power launched an impact series where beneficiaries can win up to N1 million.
Concise News reports that the competition – open to all N-Power beneficiaries – is a social media competition for beneficiaries to share the impact the scheme has had on them and on their respective communities.
In the N-Power Impact Series Competition, 1 Beneficiary in each state has the opportunity to win 1 Million Naira.
All you have to do is upload a video talking about how N-Power has impacted your life and your community.
Follow the rules carefully.
Good luck!!!#ThisIsNPower pic.twitter.com/FcDayCj0vv

According to the N-Power, winner, 1st and 2nd runner-ups from each state will receive attractive cash prizes. One beneficiary from the 36 states and the FCT will win one million naira each as first prizes while 1st and 2nd runner up in each state will win 250, 000 and 100, 000 naira each respectively.
Numerous beneficiaries obliged to the call then.
