cnwokike:
Federal Government has paid the sum of N1.6bn to 638 awardees of the Youth Enterprise with Innovation in Nigeria, YouWin, programme, an initiative of the past government.
There have been fears about the government of President Muhammadu Buhari scrapping the programme, with series of protests over the delay in grants.

But Na’inna Dambatta, director of information at the ministry of information, said the money was paid in June.

He said under the programme which took off in 2011, a total of 18, 000 young entrepreneurs were trained in management and business skills for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs).

Dambatta said 3, 900 of the trainees, including 1, 200 women, were each given non-repayable take-off grants ranging from N1 million to a maximum of N10 million for businesses of their choice.

“The third edition of the programme, which is still running with 1,500 beneficiaries has received the sum of N11.2 billion in funding,” he said in a statement.

“So far, grants totaling N7.4 billion have been disbursed to the awardees.”

Kemi Adeosun, minister of finance, said the current administration was set to restructure the programme in line with its “change” agenda.

Adeosun said the restructuring would ensure efficiency, transparency and accountability in investing the capital grants given to the beneficiaries.

She added that all the commitments made by the federal government under the YouWIN programme would be fully met.

She said every beneficiary would be duly verified, using tools like bank verification number (BVN), before disbursements.

The minister said the federal government would begin consultations with the beneficiaries and other stakeholders of the programme to inject new ideas for its sustainability.

According to the statement, the ministry of finance, which has been running the programme from inception, will hold the consultation on July 22 in Abuja.

Winners of the third edition of the programme, earlier this month, stormed the headquarters of the ministry to protest the delay in the payment of their grants.

So how come none of these people has said anything about it?
Did Buhari tell them not to say anything about it?

Until some of them comes out to tell us this is true, i will take this news the way i take APC news.

APC & lies is just like bread & butter. The govt has not paid the Youwin3 awardees ooooo! I know so many Youwin3 awardees who are bn owed their 2nd & 3rd tranches. These guys are truly doing well in their various businesses but I don't know why the present govt refused to pay up their merritted state-up grants but decide to tell lies to the world. Pls, Buhari & Adeosun should pay & encourage these guys in their brave efforts to curb unemployment to the bearest minimum in this country. Any furhter delay to settle these young & vibrant entreprenuers will be a regarded as sabotage to the Nigerian Youths.

Go and beat him now

rubbish, the disbursement has not started yet

they will start with verification before any disbursement happens

so stop insulting yourself, learn how to read and comprehend

We have not been paid why is Federal Government lying against youth that trying to create thousands of employments? This money was set aside since 2013, FG say on it all these while, now because YouWiN awardees protested they are bringing out fake news and paying different media to publish it.

Mrs. Kemi why the lies?

This information should be verify as officials of this administration have sugar-coated tongue. Just two weeks ago or so, VP Osibanjo made a statement in Dakar Senegal that Nigeria has paid all its outstanding bills to the sub-regional Body- ECOWAS. Meanwhile information coming out from a worker in one of its (ECOWAS) arms in Dakar (Intergovernmental body against money laundering in Africa) is the Nigerian Government has refused to pay any of its debt and that is why those recently given the Ecowas fellowship are starnded in the various countries that they are.

Dear all

The federal govt paid the second tranche of the youwin money of #5million early these month of june due to a friends organisation

Though the expected 2nd tranche was #6million but #5million was paid and they still awaits the 3rd tranche later

Just to let you all know that the money awarded was #10million while #2million was paid on 10th of march,2015 last year why the change in govt caused the delay of the second tranche and the subsequent one and the initial delay was due to the bank they used which is UBA but later rectified.

For any one that has the contact of the Youwin staff in Abuja,you can ask them about it and also know that they'll pay you later because the friends company in question has lost hope in the money already and it was eventually paid

Godbless nigeria and everyone of us all

I hope they have really paid the YouWin Entrepreneurs.

Meanwhile, after posting the list of PRESSID scholars in 2015, the scholars are yet to hear anything from the Federal Government. Not even a single e-mail or text message since the last election telling the scholars the way forward. The Federal Government should also let us know what is going on with the disbursement of funds for the 102 PRESSID Scholars awarded in 2015.
