Tinubu Gov’t Increases NYSC Members Monthly Allowance To ₦77,000
President Bola Tinubu’s government has approved an increase in the monthly stipend for corps members participating in the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), raising it from ₦33,000 to ₦77,000.
This information was revealed in a statement issued on Wednesday by Caroline Embu, the Acting Director of Information and Public Relations for the NYSC.
The enhanced monthly allowance will be retroactively applied from July 2024, as indicated in a letter of approval from the National Salaries, Incomes and Wages Commission, dated September 25, 2024, and signed by the Commission’s Chairman, Ekpo Nta.
This adjustment in the corps members’ allowance aligns with the recently established new minimum wage of ₦70,000 for Nigerian workers, as announced by President Bola Tinubu.
In her statement, Embu expressed the gratitude of the NYSC Director General, Brigadier-General Yusha’u Ahmed, for the government’s dedication to the welfare of corps members.
The Director General noted that this increase would enhance the morale of the corps members in their national service.
The statement reads, “The Federal Government has approved the increase of corps members’ monthly allowance to N77,000 with effect from July 2024.

“Before this, the Director General, NYSC Brigadier General YD Ahmed, had paid an advocacy visit to the Chairman in which he solicited for a robust welfare package for corps members.
“The NYSC boss is thankful to the Federal Government for the timely gesture and is optimistic that it will not only bring much-needed succour to the corps members but also boost their morale and motivate them to do even more, in their service to the nation.”
