The Federal Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction has condemned the alleged Federal Government’s N50,000 Child Support Grant for all Nigerian Parents, which has been trending on social media.
In a statement issued on Saturday in Abuja, Mrs Rhoda Iliya, the ministry’s Director of Information, labeled the information as false.
The statement cautioned parents to be wary of the activities of fraudsters trying to scam 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 well wishers not to apply, ” the statement added.
