ABAKALIKI- The National Youth Service Corp(NYSC) members serving in state government secondary schools in Ebonyi State have not been paid their monthly allowance for 8 months now.

The 2014 batch C & 2015 batch A corps members since their arrival in the state have not received a dime from the state government.

Series of complaints have been made to the Secondary Education Board (SEB) which is the body that oversees the affairs of the state secondary education yet no positive response have been gotten from the corps members.

According to a source from the government house, the incumbent governor, Chief David Umahi is said to be arranging things in place before he commence the payments. It’s possible that the current 2014 batch C Corpers can pass out without receiving any money from the state government.

This is very bad for Corpers especially those serving as secondary school teachers, because the teaching sector is more tasking than any other sector a corper is sent to.

Since corps members are not permitted to protest or strike, we urge the government of Ebonyi state to look into the plea of the corpers that have not been paid that state monthly allowance and pay them their allowance to really motivate them to carry out good service for their fatherland.
