The Federal Government has initiated a monthly N50,000 cash relief for vulnerable Nigerians through the National Emergency Relief and Stabilisation Intervention (NERSI). OPay, a digital financial services provider, has explained how its customers can check their eligibility for this relief. Eligible customers will receive a pop-up notification on their OPay app homepage, requiring them to click through to the next steps.
OPay emphasized that customers unable to see the notification are not eligible for the intervention and reassured users that they do not determine beneficiaries' eligibility. The fintech provider also cautioned against fraudsters and emphasized that they would never request personal identification numbers or one-time passwords for the payment process.
To check eligibility, customers are advised to use the OPay app or the USSD code 95520#. The NERSI program, launched by the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction, Dr Bernard Doro, aims to provide financial assistance to vulnerable households to help meet essential needs amid rising living costs.
