The Federal Government of Nigeria, led by the Tinubu administration, is expanding its National Cash Transfer Programme to reach 15 million vulnerable citizens. Under this initiative, each beneficiary will receive ₦25,000 in three separate payments, aiming to provide direct financial relief to those in need. To ensure transparency and accountability, funds are being paid directly into beneficiaries' bank accounts, linked to their National Identification Numbers (NIN) and Bank Verification Numbers (BVN). Eligibility for the programme is contingent upon being listed on the National Social Register, which contains lists of poor and vulnerable households in each state. Moreover, the government is implementing other social safety net initiatives, including the Government Enterprise and Empowerment Programme (GEEP), which provides loans to small business owners, traders, and farmers.
