World Bank disburses N35.3bn to Nigerian states, FCT

The World Bank says it has disbursed the sum of N35.3 billion to all the 36 states of the federation and the FCT as an advance payment for the implementation of the Nigeria COVID-19 Action Recovery and Economic Stimulus Programme (NG-CARES)

the programme was organised for the World Bank, the Federal Government and State delegates who would be participating in the implementation of the programme in Lagos state.

also the Task Team Leader, NG-CARES, World Bank, Abuja, said that all the 36 states were running the programme and had become effective in every state.

He added that the World Bank’s teams were in Lagos, Enugu, Yola, Birnin-Kebbi, adding that all the 36 states are participating in the implementation mission this week.

He added that the team had started going round all the 36 states for this particular mission to help them as they start the implementation process.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the NG-CARES is a 750 million dollars intervention programme that started running in 2021 and would end in 2023.

It is a collaboration between the World Bank, the Federal Government and the 36 state governments.

According to him, the total allocation to each state of the federation is the equivalent of 20 million dollars but it is result-based financing, so the money is not given to the state upfront.

“But because most states do not have enough resources to start the intervention, advance money was given to the states.

“Advance was given to the states at different amounts ranging from 500 million to 1.3 billion in some cases.

“A total of N35.3 billion has been disbursed as to all the 36 states of the federation and the FCT
