The National Social Investment Management System (NASIMS) has started disbursing long-awaited stipends to Batch C Stream 2 N-Power beneficiaries. This development comes as a relief for many program participants who have been awaiting their stipends.
What Is NASIMS and the N-Power Program?
The NASIMS platform is responsible for overseeing the N-Power Program, a federal initiative under Nigeria’s Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management, and Social Development.
This program aims to address youth unemployment and promote social development by providing monthly stipends to young Nigerian graduates placed in various fields, including teaching, health, and agriculture.
The New Self-Service Portal: ssp.nasims.gov.ng
NASIMS has recently introduced a Self-Service Portal (SSP) at ssp nasims gov ng to improve the payment process.
This platform gives N-Power beneficiaries direct access to their payment records, providing real-time status updates on their stipend payments.
Beneficiaries can now check their profile for statuses like “processing,” “completed,” or “failed payments.” This transparency aims to reduce the frustration of waiting in uncertainty and allows users to track their payments easily
Current Payment Status for N-Power Stream 2
The disbursement has already started, and NASIMS has addressed pending backlogs, specifically covering the months of October, November, and December 2024. Stream 2 beneficiaries, particularly those who completed the validation process in June and early July 2024, are included in this batch of payments.
However, due to the involvement of multiple banks, actual crediting times may vary for each beneficiary.
NASIMS estimates that payment processing for most banks should take no more than 48 hours once initiated
How to Check Payment Status and Lodge Complaints
For beneficiaries wishing to check their payment status, the ssp.nasims.gov.ng Portal provides an accessible way to monitor the monthly stipend process.
Here’s how to track your payments:
- Log into the SSP at ssp.nasims.gov.ng with your credentials.
- Review your payment status to see if your stipend is in processing, completed, or if any issues are flagged.
- If there are any payment issues, beneficiaries can submit complaints through the SSP or reach out to NASIMS via verified social media channels.
Key Reminders for Beneficiaries
Given the ongoing processing and potential for slight delays, NASIMS encourages patience among beneficiaries to avoid unnecessary stress. Stipend payments are being managed carefully to ensure that every eligible participant receives their due support
For further updates, beneficiaries should stay informed by following official NASIMS announcements, either on the self service Portal (ssp.nasims.gov.ng) or on trusted N-Power social media handles
