The National Youth Service
Corps (NYSC) on Monday
refuted social media reports
alleging it slashed corps
members’ allowance by 25
per cent.
NYSC’s Director of Press, Bose
Aderibigbe, said in Abuja the
allowance of corps members
remained N19,800, and not
N14,800 as published by the
social media.
Mrs. Aderibigbe said the
Director-General of NYSC,
Sule Kazaure, had not made
any comments regarding
allowances of corps members
as claimed in the publication.
She reiterated the
commitment of the scheme to
the welfare of all corps
members and urged corps
members and the public to
ignore what she called “the
misleading information”.
