The Federal Government has approved the increase of Corps Members’ monthly allowance from N33,000 to N77,000, The Guardian can report.
A statement on Wednesday night by the Acting Director, Information and Public Relations of the Corps, Caroline Embu, said this will take effect from July 2024.
According to the statement, the increase is in line with the enactment of the National Minimum Wage (Amendment) Act 2024.
It revealed that a letter from the National Salaries, Incomes, and Wages Commission, dated September 25, 2024, and signed by the Chairman, Ekpo Nta, has been communicated to the NYSC leadership.
“Prior to this, the Director General of 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 is thankful to the Federal Government for the timely gesture and is optimistic that it will not only bring much-needed succor to the Corps Members but also boost their morale and motivate them to do even more in their service to the nation,” the statement read.
