Recall that late last month (May), the Federal Government announced that it was about to conclude the new enrollments of one million beneficiaries under Batch C of the social investment programme.

Sadiya Farouq, the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development, who disclosed this to journalists in Abuja, the nation's capital said the one million beneficiaries would be taken in two streams of 500,000 participants each.

“Currently the ministry is about concluding the enrollment of 1,000,000 Batch C applicants in two streams of 500,000 in the first instance and another 500,000 later,” Farouq had said.
