According to the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) management, corps members in the nation will soon begin receiving a monthly allowance of 77, 000.  ,
Brigadier General YD Ahmed, the director general of the NYSC, said this on Tuesday in Abuja, according to a statement from a spokesman for the NYSC, Caroline Embu.
General Ahmed added that arrangements have been made for the payment of new corps members’ salaries, adding that his administration prioritizes the welfare of the corps.
The increase of the monthly allowance for corps members followed the review of Nigeria’s minimum wage from ₦30, 000 , to ₦70, 000 in July 2024.
In 2020, the NYSC increased the allowances of corps members from ₦19, 800 to ₦33, 000, months after a new minimum wage bill of ₦30, 000 was signed.
