NYSC To Increase Corps Members’ Allowance Soon – DG

The Director General of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Brigadier General Yushau Ahmed, has assured corps members that their monthly allowance will be increased once civil servants begin receiving the newly approved minimum wage.

In a statement signed by NYSC’s acting Director of Information and Public Relations, Caroline Embu, Brigadier General Ahmed assured corps members while speaking at the Kebbi State Orientation Camp in Dakingari and the Sokoto State Orientation Camp in Wamakko.

He urged the corps members to remain patient and continue their valuable contributions to the socio-economic development of the country, stressing that their efforts are greatly appreciated.

He said:

“Try to acquire skills that will enable you to create jobs and employ others instead of merely searching for jobs. Many ex-corps members across the country are thriving in their respective vocations today.”
