The federal government's social empowerment program to recruit 500,000 teachers may have run into a hitch as the website for the exercise crashed on Sunday, the first day applications were opened.
Heavy traffic due to massive applications by prospective candidates is easily adjudged to be the reason for the crash.
The Federal Government had, last week, announced that the recruitment of the teachers would commence on Sunday, directing interested Nigerians to apply through http://portal.npower.gov.ng.
Attempts to register on the portal around 6.48pm on Sunday failed as the website was not available.
A message was displayed: “An error occurred. Sorry, the page you are looking for is currently unavailable. Please, try again later. If you are the system administrator of this resource, then you should check the error log for details. Faithfully yours, nginx.”
The portal however seems to be fine on Monday morning.
