Beneficiaries of the Federal Government’s N-Power scheme are still complaining about non-payment of their January stipend, 15 days into new month as seen below, Afriupdate reports.
It is believed now that there is no vote of confidence in the head of the Npower programme. You could agree that, since the ministry was created there is always one story to the other on monthly stipend.#Pay Npower Beneficiaries now @Sadiya_farouq @FMHDSD @npower_ng @nassnigeria

Meanwhile, the Nigerian government’s N-Power Scheme has assured beneficiaries that payment for January stipend “will commence shortly”.
This online news medium reports that the beneficiaries (approximately 500, 000 of them) under the famed scheme of the Muhammadu Buhari administration are yet to be paid their January, 2020 allowance of N30,000.

The situation has left the volunteers furious with the government, as their pay is usually delayed.
One beneficiary identified as Jibrin Ibrahim had lamented the delayed payment on Twitter on Friday.
Replying to Ibrahim, the official account of the Job Creation and youth Empowerment scheme of the Nigerian Government offered their apology.
Apologies for the delay, payment will commence shortly.

Recall that as N-Power beneficiaries continue to bemoan the non-payment of their January stipend, Nigeria’s Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development, Sadiya Farouq has visited Maiduguri, capital of Borno State, on a sympathy meeting following the rising spate of killings by Boko Haram insurgents in the city.
On Sunday, over 30 travellers were attacked and killed just about 25 kilometres from Maiduguri.
