The reports, shared on social media, indicate that NairaGram customers can move their NERSI payments to OPay. One beneficiary shared a screenshot showing an available balance of ₦50,000, while another described the transfer process.
The development concerns the National Emergency Relief and Stabilisation Intervention (NERSI), through which the Federal Government is providing ₦50,000 to selected poor and vulnerable households.
However, these are individual experiences and do not guarantee that every transfer will succeed. Beneficiaries may still encounter network or transaction errors and should confirm a transfer before trying again.
The Federal Government lists NairaGram among its approved payment providers and confirms that beneficiaries can use its USSD service to transfer funds to bank accounts or point-of-sale (POS) agents. The programme is free.
Users should rely on official instructions.
How to transfer
Dial *726*00# from the phone number linked to your NairaGram wallet and follow the prompts to transfer funds to your OPay account. Check recipient details before confirming. Never share your PIN or one-time password (OTP).
