The Federal Government has said its Conditional Cash Transfer programme to Fifteen Million households will kick off in a week.

The Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, Dr. Betta Edu, made this known.

The Minister made this known while speaking on a monitored programme.

Edu equally said the Government has suspended indefinitely the N-Power programme.

According to her, this is against the backdrop of some irregularities noticed in the operation of the scheme, adding that an investigation has been launched into the utilisation of funds since the beginning of the programme to revamp and expand it.

The Minister stated that some beneficiaries should have exited the programme in 2022 but are still on its payroll.
