In a bid to provide targeted access to social investment opportunities for citizens, based on accurate data, Kwara State Government has mandated Residents Registration of Kwara State Social Investment Programme beneficiaries, with immediate effect.
This was contained in a press statement issued by the General Manager of KWASSIP, Dr Abdulwasiu Olayinka Tejidini today, and made available to Erudite online media, on the imperativeness of registering with Kwara State Residents Registration Agency (KWASRRA).
According to the statement; “the registration is to ensure a credible and reliable database of all categories of beneficiaries, for adequate planning and social inclusion. Upon completion of the registration, residents will be issued with the unique State Security Identification (SSID) numbers/cards which will be used for easy identification and proper documentation, during the social investment process and disbursement of funds,” it added.
It also disclosed that, henceforth any beneficiary without the SSID numbers will not have the privilege of receiving any financial incentives or benefits from government, as the registration is open to the entire citizens and residents of Kwara State.
The statement signed by the Press Secretary of the Agency, Bukola Abdulganiyu therefore warned members of the public that government’s decision about the mandatory registration is significant to the security and economic planning, with an appeal that residents should support the exercise, for the general wellbeing and data-driven planning for the people.
