APC National Chairman Nentawe Yilwatda warned that more than 10 million beneficiaries of the N75,000 conditional cash transfer are vulnerable and not on social media.
“Over 10 million beneficiaries of the N75,000 conditional cash transfer are vulnerable and not on social media,” Yilwatda said.
Yilwatda highlighted the difficulty of reaching a large segment of the population that lacks access to digital platforms. He urged the government to adopt alternative outreach methods to ensure that the cash transfer reaches those who need it most.
The conditional cash transfer, part of the government’s social welfare strategy, is intended to support vulnerable households. Yilwatda’s remarks underscore the scale of the programme and the importance of effective communication with beneficiaries.
His statement comes as the administration continues to roll out social investment initiatives aimed at reducing poverty and supporting Nigeria’s most vulnerable communities.
