President Bola Ahmed Tinubu also directed the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to carry out a “thorough investigation” of all the ministry’s financial transactions.” The investigation extended to the entire framework of the National Social Investment Programmes.

According to Npower News, Betta Edu, the office of the Accountant General of the Federation (OAGF) said at the time that such funds were meant to be sent directly from government accounts to the beneficiaries.

Chapter Seven of Section 713 of Nigeria’s Financial Regulations 2009 states that “Personal money shall in no circumstances be transferred into a government bank account, nor shall any public money be transferred into a private account.”

It also added that “Any officer who transfers public money into a private account is deemed to have done so with fraudulent intention.”

According to Npower News, Npower batch c with applicant status were not shortlisted and therefore not eligible for Npower payment when Npower payment starts, Npower batch c stream 2 under the non graduate categories that have not done their Npower training will not receive their Npower payment. Npower batch c under the non graduate categories were expected to complete an initial three months in camp training in order to receive their Npower payment, this three months in camp training is mandatory for all Npower batch c under the non graduate categories, the Npower training is not for Npower batch c stream 2 under the graduate categories and therefore will not affect their Npower payment.

According to Npower News, Npower payment will begin around late February or early March, because Npower was suspended by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu by January 12th 2024, and this Npower suspension will last for six weeks before Npower payment resumes and from the duration of the Npower suspension one can deduce that Npower payment will resume by late February or early March 2024 all this being equal, although this date is tentative depending on how long the investigations by the anti-graft agency the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission EFCC will last, if the ongoing investigations takes longer than the stipulated six weeks then regrettably the Npower payment might take longer to commence. Npower batch c should only be optimistic that the investigation will be concluded as stipulated and not extend beyond the six weeks as said by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

According to Npower New, Npower batch c received Npower payment by December last year and were supposed to receive Npower payment by January to complete the outstanding stipends, but the minister for Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation Betta Edu was involved in a scandal that led to the abrupt suspension of Npower for six weeks, and this suspension has led to a pause in Npower payment. 

Npower Batch C Stream 2 Payment Date

According to Npower News on Npower batch c stream 2 payment date, Npower payment will start after the investigation must have been concluded around March, Npower payment resumes by December 2023, after months of delay from the Ministry for Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation and one could say this was as a result of the change in the Minister for Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation. 

According to Npower News, few months ago Betta Edu was appointed as the Minister for Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty succeeding Hajiya Sadiya Umar Farouq as the Minister in charge of Npower and other social investment programs, but unfortunately the Minister's tenure was brought to an abrupt end after a memo went viral showing the Minister's request to the Accountant General of the Federation for a sum of N585 million to be transferred to a personal account, as a result of this act Betta Edu was summoned by the anti-graft agency the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission EFCC to give her narrative of the story. 

In line with this President Bola Ahmed Tinubu suspended Npower early this month for a period of six weeks in order to allow for a robust investigation, during this period Npower payment will be placed on hold, Npower batch c stream 2 payment date will be tentatively by March because Npower will resume its operations by March 2024, although the exact month of Npower payment still remains sketchy, Npower batch c have been advised to exercise patience as they await their Npower payment.

According to Npower News, Npower batch c stream 1 that have received all 12 months stipends will not be paid, only Npower batch c stream 1 that are being owed are eligible to receive Npower payment, Betta Edu made some payments by December but it appears some Npower batch c stream 1 did not receive Npower payment, after the investigations Npower batch c stream 1 eligible for Npower payment will receive Npower payment.

According to Npower News, Npower batch c under the non graduate categories that is N-build, and N-creative that have not completed their training will not be eligible for Npower payment, only Npower batch c under non graduate categories that have completed their training are eligible for Npower payment.

Npower batch A and Npower batch B are not eligible for Npower payment because they have completed their Npower program, although Hajiya Sadiya Umar Farouq is under investigation over an alleged misappropriation of funds meant for the exit package of Npower batch A and Npower batch B, few years ago Npower batch A and Npower batch B were shortlisted for a Nexit package training, but after completing the Npower nexit training, this Npower batch A and Npower batch B beneficiaries are yet to receive their Nexit package which was supposed to be a soft loan for them to start a business, but it seems the Federal Government of Nigeria is yet to fulfill their demands, and this has made Npower beneficiaries to lose their trust and hope in the Federal Government of Nigeria. Npower beneficiaries are calling on the Federal Government of Nigeria and the ministry for Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation to look into the plights of Npower batch A, Npower batch B, and Npower batch c.

Npower Payment To Resume After Investigation

According to Npower News on Npower payment, Npower batch c should kindly note that Npower payment will resume after all investigations associated with Npower must have been concluded. Npower payment cannot start when investigation is still ongoing in the Ministry. Investigation will last for six weeks on the expiration of six weeks then Npower payment will start.

Betta Edu was summoned by EFCC because she made a request for a transfer of public funds into a personal account, Sadiya Umar Farouq was summoned because of misappropriation of funds for Npower beneficiaries, Ms Halima Shehu was interrogated by EFCC because of misappropriation of funds in the National Social Investment Programme Agency.

According to Npower News, Betta Edu is cooperating fully with EFCC, Betta Edu has a slim chance of retaining her position as the Minister for Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation even when the investigation is over, Betta Edu if found guilty will cease to become the Minister for Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, Betta Edu is one of the youngest Ministers appointed by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and was praised for effecting a one month payment to Npower batch c few months after resumption of her duties as the Minister for Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation.
