@Slowchuks

In view of u people's intervention. I rest my case. God bless u all.

Now to business: I went to my bank and they told me that the info they got from YouWin last week made them to so much expected the first tranche on Monday and that they also expected throughout this week. They said they are also eager to see awardees starting their biz.

They even said that they are confused at this juncture because both YouWin 1 and 2, none entered another year. in fact that none reach 3rd week in December, that they thought that YouWiN will be improving each year.

I guess you should have seen the latest mail from Youwin by now? Lol, so I think its you that needs to apologise to me now. No money for you until after the festivity, so I am waiting for your apology...

Dear ***,
M&E ID ***

Please be informed that disbursement of Tranche 1 has been temporarily put on hold. The decision to halt the process of payment is to reduce the risk of Awardees’ diverting their YouWiN! funds for the festive season.

YouWiN! 3 Awardees should expect disbursement of their funds from January 7, 2015.

Thank you for your patience and contributions to job creation in Nigeria.

Beloved let us still continue in prayer so that their January 7, 2015 will truly be 7th of January, 2015.

If they can keep to their words. It is good. At least we now know when to start expecting so that we can make our workable plans. No more suspense.

But we thank God and also give kudos to our fellow YouWiners for their consistent disturbance. Precisely @Bamistol that had to report both to GEJ, and Okonjo-Iweala after some of us started mounting pressure on the YouWiN secretariat, they could not even pick their calls again.

Omo to ba ni ki iya un masun, ou na koni lojuorun. A child that will disturb its mother overnight will only not enjoy its sleep

Why wont YouWin shift the release of the first tranche when some people are already alleging that some awardee will use their YouWin first tranche to buy white goat and ankara and some jokingly responded that they will even use it to buy cow. Some of us don't know that YouWin staff always check nairaland and other forums to see comments. In order to play safe, they simply choose NOT to crack expensive joke. Well, Una don crack joke carry am bring extension. Anyway God de ooooooo.

@chokokomate u are a real son of the prophet. just like u prophesied and it came to pass on the said day we got the mail of buying white goat.

mkmyers45, been waiting to hear back from u.

Thanks again 4 ur willingness 2 help me.

Once more we thank God for the response. One thing I realise is that YouWiN! seem to haveso many jobs in their hands so if we are quiet they may temporarily forget us. Therefore I will encourage each awardee to reply the YouWiN mail, thanking them for the response and at the same time appeal to them to help continue their own internal process to avoid delay beyond the date and also mandate the banks to finalise their own internal process before the date so as to be able to disburse the tranche 1 the same day 7th January, 2015 so as to help us save time make specific business plan towards a specific targeted date.

I would have still demanded for another apology, but since it has been done on your behalf. No qam...

@ chokomate pls tell them not to collect white goat on credit cos serious monitoring will follow immediately.
I guess some angry ones really wanted to use some of the 1st tranche to do something else while some like us had the burden to employ and grow our wealth and move our country forward

A Youwin 3 awardee into crop farming is just telling me his disbursment schedule shows he is to get 40% of total approved grant as first tranche. I told him it should be an error, cos I hear everyone is getting 20%. Anyone here into crop farming? Pls correct me if I'm wrong.

Have you confirmed if it will be rejected?

I really think the overtly careless comments were factored in. People just couldnt leave it alone

I am a crop farmer and yes 30% of my awarded sum is my 1st tranch. So in a way he could be right as the money is probably divided in accordance to individual need.

Bros let the truth be told. If you happen to be big brother YOUWIN! How would you have handled this issue.

mkmyers45:

Yes, you have a powerful point here. And I still make bold to declare that with the dwindling economy, undue delay nobody will think of wasteful festive spending of the government grant that is supposed to be used for job creation and business breakthrough. NOBODY. The money is for our breakthrough and I know that when we use the fund for the business God will raise us to celebrate more glorious Christmas and New Year.

If we consider the mail sent by YouWiN and read between lines, we will realize that they almost quoted Chokomate. Check it below:

"Please be informed that disbursement of Tranche 1 has been temporarily put on hold. The decision to halt the process of payment is to reduce the risk of Awardees’ diverting their YouWiN! funds for the festive season."

I still believe this comment was quoted from posts on this forum. For this reason, we need to guide our utterances on this thread.

And some of those who even claim to be settling quarrel were indirectly taking sides buttressing the point that awardees will truly divert the funds.

Quarrel apart. On a serious note, pls let us watch our post so that we will not implicate our chances.

please we all have our good plans and NOT PLAN TO DIVERT FUNDS and most of our plans have lead time which if missed will drastically affect the business execution negatively.

Again I appeal to the house that in cracking jokes and in serious discussion just note that we are talking to the public where everybody has access to read, INCLUDING YouWiN staff and staff from Ministry of Finance as well as presidency.

My point of anger was 1st the undue delay, then I felt insulted when chokomate jokingly said that some awardees are planning to use some of the YouWiN first tranche to buy white goat and ankara. As far as I am concern my opinion is that anyone whom the government has decided to help breakthrough and to take part in nation building through job creation will NOT plan to divert and waste the fund on festivity. Are they following the person from the village? Even if some evil people are following the person from the village wont he/she pray to God to help send them back.

"A word", they say "is enough for the wise." This more than a word

CONCLUSION:
1. Let us watch our posts as well as our jokes
2. YouWiN3 awardees are wise enough to plan on how to make judicious use of their first tranche for their business
3. It is still on this thread that someone advised YouWiN3 awardee to use the first tranche very well so as not to get hooked between the first and second tranche.

@strigger and others taking side Just hold you peace. We are not set for any quarrel or taking side.

The fact that I choose not to respond to some of the comments doesn't mean that I don't know that some people are taking side. I rather thanked all of you, both those that took side and those that didn't. Let that suffice you all.

Merry Xmas to everybody on this thread.

favoryourl:

@chokokomate u are a real son of the prophet. just like u prophesied and it came to pass on the said day we got the mail of buying white goat.

But you earlier gave assurance of the grant been released between 15th and 19th December and sincerely I believed you. I could still remember that even on Wednesday 17th December I was thinking you were giving us assurance of Thursday or Friday.

Can you please help clarify us, because people like me that know you are a pass awardee use to believe that you have a link to get info from YouWin. Most especially when you said you were going to help us check if our account details have been forwarded to YouWin if we called you that time.

Expecting your response as I may want to know the extent to which I can take you words as from one who has info from source. I also know that Uteebit also use to give info as if from source, and its always as he gives.

The above post is for: favoryourl:

@ mkmyers45, yes the lady overseeing my acct said she can work wit d scanned copy, provided d acct is more than 6 months old.
