The Federal Government has announced its N50,000 National Emergency Relief and Stabilisation Intervention, NERSI, a financial support scheme for vulnerable households across Nigeria. This relief covers all six geopolitical zones, including each state in the South-West, South-East, South-South, North-Central, and North-West regions, as well as the Federal Capital Territory.
To qualify, individuals must be listed on the National Social Register and verified through their national identity records, based on criteria of poverty and vulnerability. The government has warned against fraudsters attempting to exploit the programme. Beneficiaries will receive N50,000 as a grant, payable in phases without deductions, and can confirm their acceptance and withdraw the funds through a USSD code sent by one of five approved payment providers.
The government urged beneficiaries to accept the offer promptly and not to pay anyone for assistance, stressing that accepting the grant, receiving the money, and replying to programme messages are all free.
