Npower News: FG Approves November and December Stipend Payment

In today’s Npower News, FG has approved November and December Stipend Payment.

NewsOnline reports that following the approval of November and December Stipend Payment to the Batch C Stream 1 Npower beneficiaries by FG through the Minister for Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development, Sadiya Umar Farouk, the National Social Investment Management System (NASIMS) has initiated payment for the month of November 2021.

Many beneficiaries of the Batch C Stream 1 Npower Programme have seen the November Payment marked as “Pending” on their NASIMS Profiles on 20th, Jan. 2022.

The activation of the November Payment process is part of the efforts of the Federal Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development to clear all outstanding Stipends owed to the beneficiaries, and normalize Stipend Payment Calander for the beneficiaries.

NASIMS has in an update confirmed the approval of the November and December Stipend payment to the beneficiaries but however noted that the Payment would be made simultaneously.

This entails that the payment will be made one after the other in a structure such that November would be paid after the payment of October, and December after the payment of November Stipend.

According to NASIMS, the simultaneous approach is to ensure seamless Stipend payment to the beneficiaries which would ease network impediments on crediting the Npower beneficiaries bank accounts.

NASIMS has heightened efforts to ensure that the beneficiaries are paid all outstanding before the end of January 2022.
