Windflower:
I have collected my device already,that's good.
I haven't been able to mark attendance,apparently its has to do with data and mtn has refused to give me. I have called their customer care severally to no avail

Okay, congratulations on that. You are supposed to make sure everything is working perfectly before leaving the collection center.

mercyp001:
I want u guys to know DAT we are not babies, so PVC is only our national obligation DAT u can remind us? Why can't u remind us DAT we should go and register for our National Identity Card. We knw DAT election is on d way, mind u,we are wiser than what you think. We did Physical Verification since Dec last year,till now no final list, and u are here talking about PVC.

This is not about the Final selection. Information on the final selection would be made available in few weeks.

mercyp001:
so what is causing d delay since last year Dec? So if what I said was not d real cause,then tell us d real cause of d delay.

We have not lost sight of 2017 pre-selected applicant, As we all know that a lot of people who did not make the first verification exercise in December/January have been privileged now to have that exercise within the month of March, All the pre-selected applicants are fully ready to go, and waiting for that go announcement, so please hold faith with us, we would definitely in this second quarter be able to onboard new volunteer in this program.
Information on the final selection would be made available in few weeks time.

Windflower:
Friday

I would advise you to proceed to the venue for device collection.
If your device is not on hold that means your payment on hold has been released.

mictima:
I wish it actually Matters!

Yes, It matters to Get Your PVC, voting is your right.
The post is just a reminder of your national obligation, sir.

mercyp001:
bro,that is d major reason for delaying d 2017 preselected candidates.

False information.

Windflower:
I am still expecting an answer,I was previously exited from the program but I done what I was asked to do. I got a text for device collection,does that mean my issue has been resolved

When did you receive the SMS for device collection?

dbestuncle:
Its time to use N-power for election purposes ba... just passing bye

Good day, sir.

Npower is not a tool for election, You have the right and choice to your vote.

Windflower:
Status is qualified but my payment is still on hold

If you are on payment hold you have perhaps about 45 days to clear yourself, You would need to get the head of your PPA to attest to us or you are remorseful and your documents are sent to us via our official email address npower@npvn.desk-mail.com, after verification we release your payment hold, but understand that the times when you are on payment hold is a suspension, so there is no backlog that is owed.

Rootprof:
Abi oo. The truth is they too don't know when the list will be released . I think its the budget that as not been passed that is causing the delay.

In the Live Chat, It was stated clearly that information on the final selection would be made available in few weeks time

Please get your PVC, get your family and friends to get their PVC.

No, sir.

On Thursday, Mr. Afolabi Imoukhuede in the Facebook LIVE chat addressed the recent delay in stipends for existing beneficiaries.

Here is the transcribed chat on that issue.

Delay in Stipends

The last point I need to make is the issue about delay in stipends, someone raised a question that N500 million was budgeted for the Social Investment Program, why are having delays in stipends. So, it’s a very good question, I think is also an educative question because as you know in Npower you learn so if anything at all this is also you learning about government accounting.

Now everything we must do as a government originate from a budget, this and things we talking about government and budget accounting I want you to begin to pay extra attention there for now because this is a budget cycle time of government.

We are discussing the 2018 budget right now in the national assembly, so please watch less of home video and Nollywood, pay more attention now to current affairs, to NTA and all the conversations around budget.

So the way government spending whether at federal, state or local government, the budgeting process is how it starts, the government money is spent through a budget just the same way you have a family budget, you obviously have a budget for your N30,000, if you don’t have a budget for your N30,000 you won’t even have a means by which you save for investment and also assist your family and your kids and what have you.

So same with budgets, but then you also know that budget is not always equal to releases. So yes, there was a 500 million that was appropriated for the Social Investment Program which comprises not just N-Power which is the job creation component, you’ve got the Conditional Cash Transfer, you’ve got the Home Grown School Feeding and you’ve got the Government Enterprise and Empowerment Program which gives loans to market women, artisans and traders.

So these are the whole multiple components that make up the Social Investment Program which had the N500 million budget. But then we don’t get a release that is equal to N500 million budget. Fancy this is you could have a budget for your year like u say in 2018 my budget for my home is a million naira but if all you’re able to rake in is N600,000 then what do you have? You have a N400,000 shortfall, so what do you do? You re-appropriate your spending based on what you released.

So that’s what it is with the way it works for us as well. Yes we have the budget but then the releases which come from how the Government earns its revenue which is through taxes, through oil revenue an all the other forms of revenue that comes to the Federal Government.

So because you also know that we have been in an era of low oil prices you know therefore the revenue of the Federal Government have been declining so what happen are those in charge, our custodians of our money which is the honorable Ministry of Finance, the FIRS and all those in charge of managing the treasury of the Federal Government always have to meet each and every time to re-appropriate the expenditures based on what you earn, just the same way you do in your family as well so that’s the reason why we also have delays sometimes in stipends.

Let’s also understand that Government money is also not the kind of money that I just put in my pocket and spend, there is a process for the release of Government money so sometimes yes, money is released to us every month and that’s the reason why till date we don’t owe you any 1 month since you joined this program, it means that money is released to us to do this every month.

However, the timing in which it gets released sometimes necessitates the reason for the delay and because the due process still must be followed even if the money was released late. So that would be why but I think we should continue to hold faith like I mentioned to some of you on twitter over the weekend. Continue to hold faith in the program on the singular basis that we have never owed you and there has not been a time that we’ve owed you any one month.

So that’s enough reason for you to keep faith, keep faith also because all your colleagues and friends who hitherto because of reasons that rest squarely on their shoulders around BVN, mismatched and all what have you and we worked with them assiduously over the last couple of months to correct their pay and they continue to get paid from the first month in terms of backlogs, a lot of you have also gotten your backlogs.

I approved your backlog payments for some of you 13 months just last month in March. I do recall that your 13th months fell sweep which was about 390,000 which could not be paid directly to your bank accounts, some of you might have had a cap on your accounts so we’ve had to break it down to maybe about 100,000 thrice and 90,000.

I think we’ve maintained and shown enough integrity like I said to you earlier, when you are in the 17th month of the program, you are a veteran. By all standards I think we’ve maintained enough integrity for you to no longer doubt the integrity of this program, nor the integrity of Mr President, his Vice, and those of us who run this program, so if you still have one, or two few months in terms of backlogs, still keep faith in the program, and don’t lose sight of you, we have a full coverage, audit trail of every one of you, and no one will be owed and everyone will be settled.

endtime1:
Be informed I have submitted the necessary documents through the focal person since March 14th that's the reason why am concerned that nothing has been done

Good day, sir.

We are working on it, If you were exited wrongly you would be reinstated sir, please be patient it a process and it ongoing.

doctuw:
Be honest with yourself; you called something a social investment scheme and almost a year applying to what we term a social investment, nothing has happened. Does that not look like a joke to you? Don't you know we are poor people for applying in the first place. Tell your oga to fund this programme. It will help a lot of people.

Okay, sir.
Your suggestion has been noted, I would like to let you know we care about all our volunteers and their well being is our utmost concern.

Yusif0510:
