The Ogun State government said it has opened another window of opportunity for disengaged Federal Government-owned Npower beneficiaries to become entrepreneurs in the agricultural sector.

The state government urged all interested NPower beneiiciaries, who were disengaged from the programme recently, to report to the Ogun State NPower State Oftice, Ministry of Special Duties and Inter-Government Affairs, Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta to register their interest.
