Fees and Dues

We are obliged to produce this aspect as the issue of finance remains the most powerful element in achieving all our set goals. To this, members candidly appeal to understand that the matter of money or monies will not be handed with levity hands and accountability is guaranteed. No doubt, every concerned member must be committed.

Application and form

It is an idea for a supply form for any eligibility member free of charge or as it may be prescribed by management of this network. However, the approved member must bear it in mind that he/she will pay Ten thousand naira (N10,000.00) in the first month of his/her membership. This will serve as an acceptance fee and more so, he/she can pay more than that.

Monthly Due

Currently, the agreed monthly membership due for membership is from five thousand naira (#5,000.00) above. This precipitates that a member can pay more than five thousand naira if he/she has the capacity to more but no member is allowed to pay less.

Payment Structure

Payment should be made latest the 5th of every new month, and upon the payment, members should screenshot or snap the evidence of the approved payment and forward it to the financial secretary or president.

Accountability

In every meeting, the financial secretary will read the financial transaction, all along with all money or monies received to the hearing of the members which would be reflected in the minute of the next meeting. All contradictions may be then, resolved between the payee and financial secretary amicably. In the case where the payee and the Financial Secretary cannot resolve amicably, then the president will interface.
