Humanitarian Affairs Ministry Clarifies N50,000 Relief Process

The Federal Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, led by Bernard Doro, clarified that beneficiaries of the N50,000 monthly relief under the National Emergency Relief and Stabilisation Intervention (NERSI) programme are chosen through an automated system. This means that interested Nigerians do not need to submit personal applications or make payments to receive support.
The clarification was made in a post on the ministry's official X (formerly Twitter) page on November 6, 2026, in response to public inquiries about the programme. The ministry cautioned that individuals soliciting money or favours in exchange for inclusion in the programme should be viewed with suspicion.
The statement comes amid ongoing economic challenges in Nigeria, including rising food prices and high living costs, underscoring the need for government assistance to citizens facing financial difficulties. The ministry directed the public to its official page for verified information regarding the NERSI programme.
