A Facebook post asking N-Power Batch C (Stream 1) beneficiaries to resign has been fabricated.
The alleged Facebook post had attracted different negative responses that could cause hatred and disunity in the country.
The purported Facebook post claimed that the body coordinating the N-Power programme has asked beneficiaries who could not bear the patchy and lopsided payment process to resign on their NASSIM portal.
On the alleged screenshot which was shared on the verified Facebook page of N-Power, it asked those who are tired of the programme to honorably resign.
Meanwhile, the Facebook account name Nassimgovng that posted the message was not a trusted page or official page of N-Power.
However, the verified Facebook page of N-Power has considered the post as a fake news.
The alleged Facebook post read:
“OFFER FOR RESIGNATION
“Dear N-Power Batch C (Stream 1) Beneficiaries.
“Considering unnecessary calls from mischievous beneficiaries over unpaid stipends, a new development has been made on the NASIMS portal. You have been given the honourable opportunity to resign from the N-Power scheme.
“We had informed you last year, stating that there was little or no budget for the payment of stipends, hence the reason for the patchy and lopsided payment process. Not considering the issue, beneficiaries have deemed it fit to demand what is not rightfully theirs.
“Once again, beneficiaries have been given the honourable opportunity to resign from the scheme.
Thanks”
Verdict
False. N-Power did not ask any beneficiary to honorably resign on his or her Nassim Portal. The alleged post on Facebook has been fabricated.
