The Federal Government has provided financial support to 25,204 vulnerable households in Plateau State under the Renewed Hope Cash Transfer programme. According to Mrs Mary Fom, Coordinator of the National Social Investment Programme (NSIP) in Plateau, the programme is part of the government’s ongoing efforts to reduce poverty.
“We have produced debit cards for the 25,204 beneficiaries in Plateau. Of course, 23,797 beneficiaries have collected their cards, while 1,371 cards are still unclaimed,” she said. Efforts are being made to contact the holders of the unclaimed cards to complete the distribution process. Fom attributed the unclaimed cards to residents who may have relocated due to security challenges in their communities
The coordinator highlighted that other initiatives under the NSIP, such as N-Power, the National Home School Feeding Programme, and the Government Enterprise and Empowerment Programme, are part of the government’s broader strategy to support vulnerable Nigerians. She expressed gratitude to President Bola Tinubu for his commitment to poverty eradication and to Governor Caleb Mutfwang for providing an enabling environment for the programme’s implementation in Plateau.
The Renewed Hope Cash Transfer programme aims to provide direct financial assistance to vulnerable households across Nigeria, particularly in areas affected by economic and security challenges. Fom noted that the engagement with stakeholders aimed to gather suggestions to improve the operational mechanisms of the programme within the state
