The agency hereby wishes to notify the general public that KG-CARES is a state-owned project aimed at tackling unemployment as well as reviving businesses that were adversely affected during the COVID-19 lockdown. In addition, the fund disbursed to beneficiary firms is a grant which is not required to be paid back but meant to be utilised to enhance the MSEs for maximum productivity.
Hajiya Rekiya Onaivo Sanni, MD/CEO, KEDA and her management team therefore dissociate self from agents who disguises self as a representative of KEDA in any form to seek financial gratifications from beneficiaries pre or post disbursements.
Kindly note, that the grants are fully meant for the beneficiaries. NO AMOUNT is required to be paid back to anyone.
Furthermore, beneficiary firms are therefore informed to be circumspect with their dealings and not fall for this maliciousness. Kindly report any fraudulent activity to the KEDA helpline: +234 901 744 0691 and Grievance Redress helpline: 09137777414
