NEXIT: All information or details needed will be given to all the trainees within the course of the training - Npower

Some exited Npower Batches A and B volunteers have been asking if CAC Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) certificate is one of the criteria and requirements for getting the soft loan? Some exited Npower Batches A and B are even saying that they do not have the CAC certificate and are wondering if this will be a form of hinderance to them receiving the soft loan when disbursement commences.

Npower management have informed exited Npower Batches A and B to always adhere to the instructions of the NEXIT soft loan training consultants and have clearly made the statement; "all information or details needed will be given to all the trainees within the course of the training".

Therefore if at your NEXIT training center during the course of training you were told that the CAC certificate is mandatory then provide your CAC certificate, but on the contrary if you were not told to include the CAC certificate then it simply means that the CAC certificate is not needed, 100% of all NEXIT soft loan training center did not mention anything like CAC certificate as a compulsory document for getting the soft loan and as such not including the CAC certificate will never affect or prevent you from getting your soft loan.

NEXIT: All those for the second batch will be contacted before the second batch kicks off, we will keep the public updated - Npower

"All those for the second batch will be contacted before the second batch kicks off, we will keep the public updated".

Every exited Npower Batches A and B volunteers at this moment have been encouraged to exercise patience as the business plan of the first batch have not been completed, once it is completed and 100% submitted then the second batch will start, and exited Npower Batches A and B volunteers on the waiting list will be contacted.

NEXIT: Please note that, the NEXIT training is in batches, individuals selected for the training and their states will be contacted for the next batch at the appropriate time, if they are yet to be contacted. Please, be patient - Npower

According to Npower the states in which the exited Npower Batches A and B volunteers resides will be contacted first before the exited Npower Batches A and B volunteers are contacted individually, before the second batch of the NEXIT soft loan training begins.

In previous reports, exited Npower Batches A and B volunteers that were not shortlisted for the first batch but were shortlisted after using the ussd code *45665# will definitely be contacted for the second batch, the second batch will commence very soon, and information have it that loan disbursement will begin on by ending of May, these all depends on how fast the second batch comes on board, how fast the second batch is completed and how fast their business plans are submitted to the Central Bank of Nigeria through NIRSAL Micro Finance Bank.
