Npower: January, February And March Stipend, The Current Situation On Ground

As we speak the Npower NASIMS management are already at the final stage of the preparation and processing of the January and February stipend, Npower Batch C Volunteers that have not noticed any changes on their payment/payroll tab on their NASIMS dashboard will start noticing changes in the coming weeks.

Asides the beauracratic nature of most Government processes in the Federation, Npower Batch C Volunteers should note that the National Social Investment Programme runs on a quarterly budget that is every three months the funds for the next quarter are being budgeted for to allow for accountability, planning, effective monitoring and performance evaluation, the National Social Investment Programme (NSIP) is at its first quarter, that is January, February and March, these funds have been approved and very soon Npower Batch C Volunteers will begin to receive their payments for the January, February and even March stipend, the second quarter for the financial budget will be April, May and June and the third financial quarter will be July, August, September, Npower Batch C Volunteers needs to understand the financial budget situations in order not to make baseless conclusions and assumptions.

The Federal Government and the Ministry for Humanitarian Affairs operates on strict budgeting and financial planning, over the years their had been a lot of scrutiny over the viability and credibility of the Npower programme, so without effective budgeting and planning the Npower program might not be able to stand the test of time. Infact before the final payroll list is sent for approval it is scrutinized, we a talking about millions of naira so every process during the payment process must be strictly monitored.

All Npower Batch C Volunteers have been advised to exercise patience, all Npower Batch C volunteers will be paid.
