FG raises corps members allowance to N77,000

The Federal Government has approved the increase of Corps Members’ monthly allowance to N77,000 with effect from July 2024.

This is in line with the enactment of the National Minimum Wage (Amendment) Act 2024.

This is contained in a letter from the National Salaries, Incomes and Wages Commission, dated
September 25. 2024 and signed by the Chairman, Mr Ekpo Nta.

Prior to this, the Director-General, NYSC, Brigadier General YD Ahmed, had paid an advocacy visit to the Chairman in which he solicited for a robust welfare package for Corps Members.

The NYSC boss thanked the Federal Government for the timely gesture and expressed optimism that it would not only bring much needed succour to the Corps Members, but also boost their morale and motivate them to do even more in their service to the nation.
