The Federal government of Nigeria has suspended the social investment programme, N-Power.
The minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, Betta Edu made the announcement during an interview with TVC News.
According to Edu, the decision to suspend the programme was birthed by several flaws within the scheme.
Minister added that a probe into how the money has been used since the program’s inception has already kick-started.
She said that some of the beneficiaries are not found in their place of assignments yet they expect monthly stipends.
Some of the beneficiaries, according to the Minister, should have left the programme since 2022 but are still on the payroll.
