In Nigeria, every year fresh graduates travel across the nation to different states in a scheme called National Youth Service Corps popularly called NYSC.

The NYSC scheme was an initiative of the Yakubu Gowon military regime in 1973 to reconstruct, reconcile and rebuild the country after the Nigerian Civil war.

While many Nigerians have called on successive governments to scrap the scheme as they say it has outlived its usefulness, many others have asked that the scheme should be retained.

Youth corp members working on road signs in Abuja recently
After three weeks in the camps where they are taken through rigorous physical routine, the corp members are then posted to a place of primary assignment.

Apart from the uniform salary paid to youth corp members nationwide, state governments where the NYSC members are posted also give them some allowances.

In some states, the prices of the NYSC members differ based on their course of study, with medical corp members usually favoured.

We lists the allowances of NYSC members in 26 states across the federation.

1. Abia – N5,000

2. Akwa Ibom state – N10,000

bricklaying is a profession...dont ridicle them...you dont build your houses.

ademoladeji:


Consult your dictionary to know he difference between Allowance, Salary and Wages.

It's gonna be senseless for a Corps Member to have a take home more than a skilled/semi-skilled artisan. So brov, be more objective please

EPOMA:


How can I help people that reason this way . My dear friend being a graduate is no big deal . In UK, Germany, USA . Bricklayer earns more than any Uncooked graduate that just finished school. Go do your research before you post. Shame a lot of people clicked Like as if it is true

YabaLeftist:


And your point is? That a corper should earn more than a brick-layer or what?

A brick-layer works his butts of to feed his wife and kids, a corper on the other hand does little or nothing, and he/she has only his/her mouth to feed.

Reference:


And what makes corpers better than bricklayers when the only thing money is exchanged for is skill, risk or effort. Which of these does a corper excel in above a bricklayer.

adewumiopeyemi:
bayelsa pay 3 k in land while people across water pay 5k.... that were i serve in 2012.... i serve across water then brasiland.. in bayelsa...

PearlStreet:
Hmmn... 10k for Lagos Corpers.

A bricklayer earns about 3k/day and works for 6 days (excluding Sundays)

3k/day X 5 days X 4 weeks
3 X 5 X 4
60k/month.

**NB There is no state in Nigeria where a bricklayer doesn't earn than a Corper.

candidbabe:
Kwara state only pays medical corpers. Non medical corpers receive nothing.

Adaure4ever:
@OP, where is Anambra? Abia is paying 5,000, Imo 2000 and Ebonyi is paying 15,000. Hmmm. All the same, nice research.

thecrush:

Akwaibom is 6k... was never 10k or 5k
