 … As Lagos Produces List of 283,003 Beneficiaries of N25,000 For Three Months 

The Federal and the Lagos State Governments are currently perfecting arrangements to commence the disbursing of N25,000 for three months to 283,003 vulnerable households identified in Lagos State under the Renewed Hope Cash Transfer programme launched by the Federal Government in 2023. 

Ahead of the commencement of the disbursement of the support funds, an enrollment training exercise that will aid the capacity-building of the nominated 186 Cash Transfer Facilitators (CTFs) and equip them for the task took place in Lagos on Tuesday at Ostrall Hall, Ikeja. 

Speaking during the training programme, the Commissioner for Wealth Creation and Employment in Lagos State, Hon. Akinyemi Ajigbotafe informed that the initiative was part of efforts of the Federal Government to mitigate the economic shocks arising from Government's Policies, Natural Disasters, or Pandemics that negatively affected rural and urban livelihoods in Nigeria. 

According to him, the Federal Government established a time-limited Economic Shock Response – Cash Transfers (ESR-CT) of N25,000 for three months to 283,003 Poor and Vulnerable Households (PVHHs) in Lagos State to cushion the effect of the ongoing economic reforms at the Federal level. He urged the Cash Transfer Facilitators (CTFs), to see themselves as grassroots mobilizers, foot soldiers, and ambassadors of the State of Excellence, who must discharge their duties as expected without fear or favour to anyone.

of Wealth Creation and Employment, has been assigned to implement Renewed Hope Cash Transfer to 283,000 beneficiaries in the 57 LGs/LCDAs across Lagos state.

 “As part of the Institutional Arrangement, the Cash Transfer Facilitators are drawn from the Local Governments and Local Council Development Areas of the wards where the targeted beneficiaries were validated”, the Permanent Secretary added.
