What Nigeriastartupact reports scammers do
There is an ongoing claim that the Federal Government, in partnership with the World Bank, has opened applications for the Nigeria Family Strengthening and Development Programme (NFSP), offering a ₦100,000 monthly cash transfer.
However, the said programme is a scam and is not associated with the Federal Government.
The website, nfsp.ng, describes NFSP as a grassroots empowerment initiative under Renewed Hope of President Bola Tinubu.
It claims the programme will protect 80 per cent of the population.
It advertises ₦100,000 monthly grants, skills training and agricultural support.
But the government announcement the scammer uses does not announce any monthly payments of ₦100,000 or authorise nfsp.ng to collect applications from Nigerians.
The Federal Ministry of Information and National Orientation reported in May 2025 that the Minister of Women Affairs had announced the National Family Strengthening and Development Programme.
Asks for money
