N-Power has confirmed that the stipends for the month of May will be paid “shortly”.
The Twitter handle of the federal government social programme revealed this while responding to a query from a beneficiary, believed to be a Muslim, who is expecting the payment to prepare for the Eid ul-Fitr celebrations.
Recall March stipends were not paid as at when due, however, beneficiaries received their salary on the due date in April.
The Federal Government’s N-Power scheme currently engages no fewer than 500,000 youth graduates deployed to provide public health services in teaching, health, agriculture and tax and monitoring.
It also engages another 200,000 non-graduates in training or on attachment to organisations as interns.
