Npower, the Federal Government’s youth empowerment programme, has recently announced that payment for Batch C Stream 2 beneficiaries is yet to commence.
The payment delay has left many beneficiaries frustrated and anxious, especially those with pending, paused, and failed payment in Batch C Stream 1.
According to Npower News, beneficiaries who are yet to be paid are advised to exercise patience as their payment will commence soon. The programme also encourages beneficiaries to check their payroll tab on the Npower portal regularly for updates regarding their payment status.
For Batch C Stream 2 beneficiaries who have pending, paused, or failed payment on their Npower portal, Npower advises them to send their Npower ID to their Twitter handle @npower_ng, call their customer service representative numbers at 092203102 or 018888148, or send an email to npowersupport@nsip.gov.ng with their Npower ID and complaint.
However, Npower Batch C Stream 1 beneficiaries who have sent a complaint to Npower’s customer service should not send another message but always check their payroll tab on their Npower portal for updates regarding their payment status.
The payment delay is not peculiar to Npower, as most government agencies in Nigeria often experience payment delays due to bureaucracy and other factors.
However, it is important to note that the government is making efforts to ensure that beneficiaries receive their payments as soon as possible.
In the meantime, Npower advises beneficiaries to take advantage of the programme’s training and empowerment opportunities to enhance their skills and employability.
The programme offers various training and skill acquisition programmes to beneficiaries to help them become self-reliant and productive members of society.
The payment delay for Npower Batch C Stream 2 beneficiaries is a temporary setback, and the programme is working to ensure that beneficiaries receive their payments as soon as possible. While waiting for payment, beneficiaries should make the most of the programme’s training and empowerment opportunities to improve their skills and enhance their employability.
