NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT DENIES N50,000 CHILD SUPPORT GRANT FOR PARENTS
The Federal Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction has dismissed as false the widely circulated claim on social media about a Federal Government Child Support Grant of N50,000 for all Nigerian parents.
In a statement issued on Saturday in Abuja, the ministry’s Director of Information, Mrs. Rhoda Iliya, labeled the information as fake and urged parents to remain vigilant against fraudsters attempting to deceive them.
”This is a scam trending on social media and the Ministry has tagged it as fake news.
“We are not aware of this registration portal and if the ministry will undertake such programmes there will be a proper enlightenment.
”Nigerians should be careful, don’t be a victim of these scammers on social media.
”Also alert your families, friends, and wellwishers not to apply, ” the statement added.
