HOUSE OF REPS PASSES BILL SEEKING INCREMENT OF CORPS MEMBERS ALLOWANCE!

The House of Representatives, yesterday passed for third reading a Bill for an Act seeking to amend the National Youth Service Corps Act 2004 which will bring about an increment in the allowance earned by Corps members in the country.

The Bill which also seeks to provide mandatory life insurance to Corps members was sponsored by Hon Joan Mrakpor, of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, from Delta State. It was unanimously adopted by members.

Passage of the Bill would enable corps members who have acquired special business skill from the Service to have access to loan.


Mrakpor, while calling on his colleagues to support the passage of the bill, said the essence of the Bill’s amendment was to ensure that the aim of the NYSC scheme was not defeated and it would reduce the number of graduates relying on white collar jobs in the country.

Following its passage, the House referred the Bill to the adhoc committee on constitution review for further legislative input.

What do mean by bhs pls.

One good move by the National Assembly I just pray does that get dis money use is wisely

hmmm it shld b reduced to like 5k monthly stipend and made optional, anybody that agrees to serve on 5k monthly stipend should be given a national award like MON member of the order of niger after service and he/she will be honoured by the president at the end of the service year

It is dat wen politicians become opposition they start making sense? Am referring to the PDP member who sponsored the bill. PDP members now talk about public welfare... Wonders shall never end

Hope it will be up to 50k monthly

good move

So they had to wait until I finish service before they pass this long overdue bill. Issoraite. They shld also extend the service to 2yrs then.

Great news, PMB shud quickly sign it into law as soon as it sent to him... Oya make I prepare to serve ;DGreat news, PMB shud quickly sign it into law as soon as it sent to him... Oya make I prepare to serve

Anything governmental follows an annoying sluggish process...
