How MTN users can access FG’s N50,000 grant

The Federal Government's N50,000 monthly relief programme for vulnerable households is accessible to MTN users through the MoMo Payment Service Bank USSD code. To check eligibility and accept the support, subscribers can dial *671*0# from their registered phone numbers. If selected, users should follow the on-screen instructions, respond to official MoMo notifications, open a MoMo account if they don't have one, and access the funds through the MoMo application, USSD service, or a MoMo agent.

The government advises against following unverified instructions and warns users against sharing sensitive information. Eligibility is determined from national identity records and the National Social Register, with payments made in phases. Beneficiaries can contact the NERSI helpline or MoMo PSB customer support for assistance.
