The payment exercise, which began on Wednesday, April 2, 2025, targets a total of 440 beneficiary households across 38 communities within the Municipality. This initiative is part of the government’s broader effort to alleviate poverty and provide financial relief to vulnerable groups.

Grant amounts were disbursed based on household eligibility as follows:
