This is to inform the General Public that the Executive Management of ISHIBA Development and Empowerment Centre distances herself from the indiscriminate collection of money from members across the 36 States and FCT.

It is very pertinent to bring to your notice that some of the States collated incomplete data during the registration process in their respective States that resulted in the exclusion of Bank Account details of potential members which has become necessary for participation in grants that may be approved for the Organization. Sequel to this development, and after several meetings on all Executive platforms, and plea from the various State Coordinators and State Executives of the affected States, approval was granted to the following affected States to contact potential members and do a verification exercise so as to allow them update their information with a maximum token of Five Hundred Naira Only, to cover for the fresh expenses they incurred and nothing more. The State Monitoring Team of the affected States were mandated to ensure effective compliance and prosecute defaulters. The affected States includes; FCT office, Abia, Adamawa, Akwa Ibom, Anambra, Benue, Edo, Enugu, Imo, Kaduna, Kano, Kogi, Kwara, Nasarawa, Niger, Ogun and Oyo States.

The Executive Management wishes to state categorically for the sake of emphasis that the States above were the ones permitted to carryout this exercise within the ambit of the law.

Please, do not lose your resources to people who may want to defraud you in disguise of verification or replacing you with others.

Thank you all and always remember to stay safe. God bless you all.

Signed

Chairman, National Monitoring and Evaluation Committee
