The Director General of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Brigadier General Yushau Ahmed, has explained that the recent increase in corps members’ monthly allowance has not been implemented due to funding challenges.
This clarification comes after the Federal Government approved raising the allowance from ₦33,000 to ₦77,000, effective from July 2024.
The increment was confirmed in a letter from the National Salaries, Incomes, and Wages Commission, dated September 25, 2024, and signed by its Chairman, Mr. Ekpo Nta.
However, corps members only received ₦33,000 in their September payments, leading to concerns and confusion among participants in the program.
In an interview with the BBC Hausa service, Brigadier General Ahmed explained that while the increase had been approved, the government had yet to release the necessary funds to implement the new allowance.
He assured corps members that the NYSC is actively working with the relevant authorities to expedite the release of funds and ensure the timely implementation of the increment.
He said, “Not only the corps members, even our staff members’ salary has been increased about four to five months ago, but it has not been implemented yet. But we are hopeful that the new pay will be implemented soon, but the funds have not been released to us yet.
“The information we have did not specify when the new allowance will be paid, but we were assured that their monthly allowance has been increased from 29th July 2024.”
