Corps members (NYSC)
BREAKING: FG pays Corps members N77,000 monthly allowance
The Federal Government has officially commenced payment of N77,000 monthly allowance to National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members.
The announcement of a pay increase by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu which earlier brought relief and excitement among corps members nationwide, was met with disappointment following delays in implementation of the new allowance.
For almost six months after the announcement in September 2024, serving corps members were paid the previous N33,000 allowance introduced in 2020 under former President Muhammadu Buhari.
Confirming the development, a serving corps member in Kwara State, simply identified as Adepoju, said the scheme has commenced N77,000, describing the increase as “long overdue.”
