On Monday, August 6, 2018, a twitter handle, APC Newspaper, which claims to be a social media mouthpiece for the ruling party, All Progressive Congress announced that President Muhammdu Buhari has raised NYSC allowance to N49,800.
This writer, however, tweeted at NYSC to confirm the credibility of the APC Newspaper’s tweet about the allowance increase and @officialnysc replied saying it is a rumour.
Shortly after responding to the tweet that asked the agency to clear the air on the rumour @officialnysc immediately deleted the tweet.
Silverbirdng.com also spoke NYSC official in Edo State about the rumoured allowance increase. The official who prefers to be anonymous however said he is not in the best position to confirm the increase in corps member allowance.
Recall that the Director General, National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Brig. Gen. Suleiman Kazaure recently has reportedly said the Federal Government has already started the review of the NYSC corps members’ allowance.
The DG also said that the Presidency also copied the Ministry of Finance in the letter.
Kazaure announced this on Thursday, August 2, 2018, during a tour of the NYSC orientation camp in Abuja.

Is that not too much?
how can government fund that.

Meanwhile
@grupo, I am jealous.
In my days, it was 7,500 before increasing to 9,500.

Infact, I am annoyed with the scheme,
If i am the president, I will scrapped the scheme,
Is a waste of resources and time.
I will rather give the graduates the money like 500,000 to start life.

scam 2019,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,go and ask you win winners

So there was no increase, just another lie.

Is it true or lie?
How did NYSC members react or didn't the photo load well on my phone?
I don't understand all these headlines anymore


Meanwhile there's a job vacancy at the World Health Organization
Needed qualification not much,please apply now!

Prospective corpers should be patient and wait for the confirmation.
With this government, This is much possible.
We are seeing the positive change everywhere already.
Nigeria will be great.

Day dreaming... Those politicians rather die than allow Corp members get that amount

NYSC allowance over the years always enjoy 100% increase. So most likely the future intakes should enjoy the increase from 20k to 40k+. It's a win win.
Happy youth, peaceful government.
Unhappy youth, stone cold misery for the president. Ask Obj, GEJ and and Buhrai. Buhari own worse pass sef.

Scam ....JAPA

Not possible, unless they want NLC to shut down the country, you have to increase minimum wage first, how can a Corper earn double the minimum wage?

Make them begin pay am first

what if buhari starts paying the 49k and he wins the 2019 re- election. after winning he now returns the allowance back to 19800

Na lie lie go kill Apc. Amen

Election campaign

buhariguy:
Is that not too much?

Not too much in what sense sorry

Buhari want to create scene again?

We all know it's a rumour

You will see it but May not taste it in any ways

Hard to believe.

Can anything good come out of APC?

let the money starts rolling in,

buhariguy:
Is that not too much?

Too much as in?

buhariguy:
Is that not too much?

Are u saying 50k is too much as monthly allowance for corps members?


I now see y our leaders feel that certain things are too good for Nigerians.

Election is nearby.
This rumour may still hold some waters (may not be up to the rumoured amt though).

You will see it but May not taste it in any ways

this is Nigeria

They want to fool Nigerians.

buhariguy:
Is that not too much?

Are you jealous because it is higher than your BMC pay per post allowance?


My people, these are the kinds of lowlifes you argue with. A typical BMC zombie thinks ₦48k is too much. He would rather the money was equivalent to his ₦30k BMC allowance.

It is now confirmed that most of the people who support Buhari are either insane or mischievous children who are still taking handouts from their parents.

ok

pawesome:
this is Nigeria

yes, I know this is not Somalia!
