The Director General of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Brigadier General Yush’au Ahmed, on Tuesday assured corps members that their increased allowance will soon be effected.
Ahmed gave the assurance in Abuja in a chat with journalists during the inauguration of a bus donated to the scheme by Capital Express Insurance Ltd.
In September 2024, the Federal Government approved the increment of corps members’ monthly allowance from N33,000 to N77,000, effective July 2024.
The payment is yet to be implemented, causing concern to corps members.
The Director General while reiterating the scheme’s commitment to corps members’ welfare, assured them that all arrangements to effect the payment had been put in place.
