The Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development, Sadiya Umar Farouq, has said the stipends of N-Power beneficiaries for the month of April have been paid.

Farouq made this disclosure in a statement issued on Saturday.

Okay.ng recalls that the minister during the Presidential Task Force briefing on COVID-19 on May 15 said the stipends would be paid this week.

In the statement, the humanitarian minister noted that the payments were made to N-Power beneficiaries from batch A and B after delays from the GIFMIS platform were rectified.

Furthermore, Farouq disclosed that payment for the month of May is being processed, adding that the ministry is working on streamlining the programme.

She said: “Last week I promised that the stipends would be paid this week. We encountered some delays on the GIFMIS platform but I can now announce that all N-Power beneficiaries from Batch A and B have been paid their April stipends.

“We are working hard to streamline the programme for greater efficiency and to provide opportunities for more Nigerian youths. Details will be provided as soon May stipend has been paid.”

N-Power is a Job Creation and Empowerment Initiative of the Social Investment Programme by the Federal government of Nigeria for citizens between the ages of 18 and 35.
