According to NASIMS management, the delay in the payment of January and February stipends is caused by a lack of funds, but may be initiated sooner than expected, as promised.
The statement reads,
Recall that we published a precise report a few weeks ago, clearly stating the reason for the unprogressive payment system in the N-Power scheme. This information is with regards to the disturbances and complaints by beneficiaries over unpaid January and February stipends.
We acknowledge your grievances and sincerely apologise for the inconvenience this delay has caused you. The payment of January and February stipends, which has yet to be approved, may be initiated sooner than expected as we had promised.
However, the N-Power team under the supervision of NASIMS is doing everything possible to tackle this problem. We advise you to remain calm while we sort things out for your benefit.
Note that all outstanding stipends and backlogs will be paid in due time.
Keep your accounts validated.
Thanks.
Ejes Gist Newspaper recalls that the NASIMS management has announced that Npower January and February stipends will be initiated on or before March 18th.
May the minister think twice and settle the stipends sooner than expected.
