Members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) have expressed their displeasure after receiving alerts of N33,000 instead of N77,000 announced by the Federal Government, describing this as a grand ‘419’.
Recall that the Federal Government had on September 25, 2024, officially raised the monthly allowance for Corps members, effective from July 2024.
This adjustment aligns with the National Minimum Wage (Amendment) Act 2024, which will substantially enhance the welfare package for corps members.
However, on October 2, 2024, the internet and specifically X ( Twitter ) is left buzzing with Federal Government’s refusal to fulfill its end of the bargain.
Corps members have expressed displeasure, sharing screenshots of the 33,000 payment as opposed to the promised 77,000, with some going as far as calling the government’s strategy ‘propaganda’ and grand ‘419’ to its own citizens.
