In a recent development in the ongoing saga of N-Power stipend disbursements, beneficiaries have made an impassioned plea to the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, Dr. Betta Edu, and the newly appointed CEO of the National Social Investment Programmes Agency (NSIPA), Mrs. Delu Bulus Yakubu. The heart-rending appeal revolves around the non-payment of N-Power stipends for a prolonged period of eight months.
The beneficiaries have taken to expressing their concerns, with even their children joining the chorus to call for the long-overdue payment of their fathers’ stipends. A poignant image has gone viral, featuring a young girl holding a placard that reads, “Dr. Betta Edu, please pay our father,” drawing widespread attention to their plight.

This process may involve a review of payment structures, ultimately extending the reach of these impactful programs to a wider audience.
