My Deepest Apology, GIFMIS is Ready Sadiya On Deutsche Welle (DW) News.

NPower Batch A and NPower Batch B will start receiving June Stipends within the week, and July stipend will follow next week. The Federal Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development has approved June stipend.

In a conversation with DW News, Sadiya Umar Farouk blamed flagged accounts, where some NPower volunteers received double payment last month.

She also blamed GIFMIS as a slow but effective platform for huge credit transactions for Social Investment Scheme like the NPower scheme.

Many NPower volunteers have taken to various social media platforms to complain over the delay of their stipends. But the system is already set to credit NPower volunteers, she stated.

GIFMIS platform takes seven days to process payment, that is, if order is given now, it will take one full week before NPower volunteers get alerts.

All NPower volunteers owed will also be paid at once before disengagement into transition, she added.

This will be the last stipend for Batch A NPower volunteers as they exit the programme, the Federal government is transitioning volunteers into a new level of partnership, whose details are not clear.

NPower Batch B will be eliminated same way, by July ending, giving way for Batch C entrance
