NANS Demands Probe Into NYSC Over Non-Payment of ₦77,000 Allowance

The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has urged the Federal Government to investigate the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) over the delay in paying corps members the newly approved ₦77,000 monthly allowance.

NANS expressed disappointment that, despite the Federal Government’s approval of the increase from ₦33,000 to ₦77,000, effective July 2024, corps members have yet to receive the new payment.

Responding to the concerns, NYSC Director-General, Brigadier General Yushau Ahmed, attributed the delay to the non-release of funds, stating that the scheme is still awaiting financial backing from the government.
