The National Service Scheme (NSS), has asked personnel on government payroll to validate their particulars with the scheme or risk forfeiting their allowances.

This was contained in a statement issued by the Executive Director of the Scheme, Mustapha Ussif.

The statement explained that this is due to the reforms in the E-zwich payment system.

“All national service personnel are therefore expected to obtain validation forms from the district secretariats of the NSS, fill them with their respective heads of departments, and personally submit them to the district secretariats by Monday, 15th May, 2017 to complete the validation process.”

“It is important for national service personnel to note that, anyone who is not validated by the stipulated date, will be considered nonexistent and therefore, WILL NOT be paid his/her allowance,” the statement added.
