President Bola Tinubu has directed the immediate payment of overdue stipends owed to N-Power beneficiaries nationwide.
This action was prompted by a report revealing that Batch ‘C’ beneficiaries hadn’t received their stipends for nine months.
The beneficiaries’ outcry led by the National Association of N-Power Beneficiaries prompted the President’s intervention.
They expressed frustration over the non-payment, citing financial uncertainty and despair.
Following a thorough verification exercise by the Ministry, Rasheed Olanrewaju Zubair, the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to the Minister, confirmed the commencement of fund disbursement in line with President Tinubu’s directive.
The Minister emphasized the significance of this payment for Nigerian youths during the festive season, affirming the President’s commitment to their welfare.
“I ensured beneficiaries were paid before Christmas as directed by the President. Payment has begun, and beneficiaries can check their bank accounts,” Zubair stated.
