Latest Npower Stipends Payment News Update
We will be talking about Betta Edu And Npower Stipend Payment. In a new development, the House of Representatives has stepped into the matter of the N-Power program. They have urged the Federal Government to lift the hold on the payment of N-Power and other Social Investment Programs and resume payment to alleviate the hardship of vulnerable Nigerians.
Recall that before the suspension of the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation Betta Edu and the sacking of the National Coordinator of the program NSIPA CEO Hajiya Halima, there was preparation to start the new NSIP program under the Agency.

However, the suspension of the managers created a delay in initiating the program’s new plan and has further exacerbated the hardship faced by beneficiaries, potentially leading to social unrest.
The N-power beneficiaries a few days ago had a peaceful protest in Abuja demanding that the Federal government lift the suspension of the NSIP Program.
That notwithstanding, the House urged the Federal Government to expedite action to complete the ongoing investigation of the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation and put on hold the planned establishment of the Steering Committee Board to oversee the program.
The House also criticized the planned steering committee Board overseen by the Minister of Finance, as the program was an act of Parliament that requires legislative amendment before it could be supervised by another body.
