NYSC Allowance Increases To N30,000

The monthly allowance of members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has been increased to 30,000 by the Federal Government.

This was disclosed on Thursday, by the Finance Minister, Mrs. Zainab Ahmed, during a press conference.

However, she noted that the FG is still working out modalities before the implementation of the new allowance for corps members.

According to her,

“The other aspect that should be clear is that there is an increase for the NYSC as well because NYSC, by its Act, is designed that they earn the minimum wage.”
