Hello AGSMEIS how can the claim to have disbursed 25B be boldly stated, there is no data or assurance anywhere that attests to this. The 2020 set that applied, none I know of has received this so called disbursement, after all payment for training, to open account!. Its either this is a lie, scam or politicized. And yet, another call is made for 2021? Why is this so, deceiving fellow Nigerians, robbing them of the one they have, promising & not fulfilling? Its a pity!
