The federal government said it has started the partial payment of 774,000 jobs beneficiaries under its special public works (SPW) programme.

The minister of state, labour and employment, Festus Keyamo disclosed this in a press statement released via his Twitter handle

The Special public work is a Buhari government initiative scheme that commenced in July 2020 aimed at providing employment for youths in all the 774 local governments in Nigeria.

The programme was approved by Muhammadu Buhari as part of the fiscal stimulus measures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Keyamo revealed that President Buhari had ordered the release of funds for payment of the 774,000 beneficiaries of the SPW programme.

“After the release of some of the funds by the Ministry of Finance for the payment of SPW stipends, I directed a rigorous scrutiny of the accounts of the participants before payments,” the tweet read.

“We discovered instances of accounts not matching BVNs, multiple accounts bearing a single BVN, non-existent BVNs, etc.”

The minister said in a bid to eliminate fraud, he directed the National Directorates of Employment (NDE) to write to commercial banks to investigate the issue before commencing payments.

“So far, only ACCESS Bank has responded with accounts verified for payments and the NDE has today commenced payments of those accounts with ACCESS Bank.

“We await the responses of ZENITH, UBA, FCMB, FIDELITY, HERITAGE & Yobe Micro-Finance Banks to clean up the anomalies.

“Our determination to ensure those selected for this programme get paid to assist them in these tough times is also matched by our determination to ensure that the programme does not spiral into a vehicle for fraud; not under the watch of Mr. President; not under my watch.”
