Introduction
In a significant development for N-Power beneficiaries, the Federal Government of Nigeria has confirmed its commitment to clearing the long-standing 9-month backlog of payments.
This welcome news came from the national program manager of N-Power, Akindele Egbuwalo, who revealed the government’s plans to initiate the payments in November. This transformative program has also been given a fresh name: the Renewed Hope Job Creation Programme (RHJCP).
Transitioning to Renewed Hope Job Creation Programme (RHJCP)
The first revelation by Akindele Egbuwalo is the renaming of the program to the Renewed Hope Job Creation Programme (RHJCP). This name change symbolizes the government’s renewed commitment to job creation and economic empowerment through the N-Power initiative. It sets the stage for a revitalized approach to tackling unemployment issues in Nigeria.
Recovery of Funds from Payment Service Providers
Akindele Egbuwalo further shared that funds for the backlog payments have been successfully recovered from the existing payment service providers. This is a crucial step in the process, as it ensures that the government has the necessary resources to fulfill its promise to N-Power beneficiaries. It demonstrates the government’s financial responsibility and accountability.
Payment in Installments
One important detail unveiled during this announcement is that the payment of the 9-month backlog will be done in installments. While this may raise questions about the exact payment schedule, it is a positive sign that the government is taking steps to address the backlog systematically and prudently. This approach ensures that beneficiaries will receive their payments in a structured and manageable manner.
