Novissi cash transfer program resumes in the Savannah region

(Togo First) - The government of Togo decided to relaunch the Novissi cash transfer program in the Savannah region, especially for the people of Cinkassé, Kpendjal, Oti, Tandjouaré, and Tône. 

These populations were subjected to restriction measures to prevent Covid-19 cases from rising in the region.  

The scheme will be deployed in the next two weeks. It will enable men and women in the prefectures concerned to get respectively CFA6,125 and CFA5,250 per head. 

Besides public officers, people registered on the national social security fund and the pension fund, all adults living in the region concerned will be covered. 

Eligibility to benefit from the program remain the same: having a valid voter’s ID delivered after 2018, be registered for the program, and provide required documents. 

Let it be recalled that around CFA12 billion has been disbursed so far under the program. Launched in April 2020, the Novissi cash transfer program has benefited more than 500,000 people.
