This online newspaper understands that the National Social Investment Program (N-SIP) comprises the following programs:

• N-power
• Conditional Cash Transfer (CCT)
• Government Enterprise and Empowerment Program (GEEP)
• National Home Growth School Feeding (NHGSFP)

This indicates that the National Social Investment Programme Agency is intended to be established by the Bill in order to oversee and carry out the National Social Investment Programs. If the Bill is passed and becomes law, it will give the current NSIP legal ground for transition into the next administration of Bola Tinubu.
