Supportsgrants claims to be a private sector initiative founded in 2020 as a result of the effect of Covid-19 on Nigerians and Africans causing millions to slide into poverty due to loss of jobs, bankruptcy, loss of investment, high rate of inflation, and paucity of government revenue.
According to reports;
“This Support Grants Nigeria 2021 scheme was initiated by a group of Africans based in Europe for over the past 20 years as a way of giving back to the continent and driving a positive impact on citizens. It is a not-for-profit project that is designed to pave way for other well-meaning citizens to be part of.
“With over a trillion naira spent by the Nigerian government in the past months to provide relief to its citizens including Covid-19 Relief Fund, palliatives, Survival grant, Agricultural Micro Small Medium Enterprises (AGMESIS) etc. yet a greater number of people are yet to benefit from any.”
However, there have been several questions as regards the legitimacy of the platform given that applicants will be required to download an orientation manual worth N2, 000 upon sign-up.
At ACEworld Publishers, we try as much as possible to advise our users to take extra cautions at applying for opportunities or grants that require payments or sensitive data.
Our stand:
We have done our research and we are yet to verify the legitimacy of Support Grants Nigeria 2021 scheme. We advise users to take extra caution and go through individual verification before applying if they really wish to.
