Amidst ongoing investigations and calls for reinstatement, the Federal Government discloses plans to restart the intervention schemes coordinated by the National Social Investment Programme Agency (NSIPA).
Mohammed Idris, the Minister of Information and National Orientation, revealed during a radio interview in Kaduna that the committee set up by President Bola Tinubu to review the operational mechanism of the national social investment programme has submitted its report.
This paves the way for the resumption of programs such as N-Power, conditional cash transfer (CCT), government enterprise and empowerment programme, and the home-grown school feeding initiative, affecting millions of vulnerable households.
Additionally, the government intends to reinvest savings from the removal of electricity subsidies into improving power supply and other vital social services.
Plans for agricultural interventions and investments in the procurement of compressed natural gas (CNG) buses are also discussed by the minister, highlighting the administration's multifaceted approach to addressing socio-economic challenges across various sectors.
