The Federal Government has introduced a USSD service through Wema Bank’s ALAT platform, allowing selected Nigerians to check their eligibility for the ₦50,000 National Emergency Relief and Stabilisation Intervention (NERSI).
The programme, coordinated by the Federal Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction, is designed to provide financial assistance to poor and vulnerable households affected by the rising cost of living.
Wema Bank is among five approved payment providers selected to facilitate the disbursement of the funds.
As reported by PM News on Monday, according to information on the government’s NERSI portal, eligible Wema Bank customers can check their status and accept the payment using a USSD code without an internet connection.

1. Dial the USSD code: Dial _945_23# on the mobile number linked to your Wema Bank account.
