their monthly allowance. Across different states student graduates serving their father land lamented
bitterly over the delay in paying their allowances beyond the expected dates of month ends as
reporters interacted with some of them during the world cancer day events held in Abuja and other
states.

Speaking a corp member who is addressed as John Udoka in Anambra, posted at the outskirt of
city said ” honestly, it has not been easy ooo, with this recession and new location… I have been on
my phone every time expecting alert, today is 4th and even weekend, how I go take survive”? The
NYSC member for stressed on the need for the government to always pay them on time”.

As the country experience different economic challenges, several youths and Nigerians are expected
to storm the national stadium for the Tuface rally, with the situation of non payment of allowances

serving at Bwari area council, Abuja rather had optimistic view. According to her ” I can not say the
it has to do with the recession, it might just be a delay somewhere besides, corp members in Rivers ,
Akwa Ibom states and fews other have been paid” when asked about joining the 2face protest on
Monday she said ” well, there are different ways to express their displeasure am not in the position
to talk about this issue, am serving my country not an administration”

the small stipends for the month. Ezenwoye who refused to grant interview on issues of NYSC has
gone ahead to confirm partnership with Big Church Foundation for her Charity CDS. She would
