The Director General of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Brigadier General Yushau Ahmed, has announced that corps members will begin receiving a revised monthly allowance of N77,000 starting in February 2025.

Speaking on Thursday while addressing the 2024 Batch ‘C’ Stream II corps members in Katsina, Ahmed revealed that the increment has been incorporated into the 2025 Federal Government budget.

“This month (January) has already ended, but once the budget is passed. By next month (February), you will start receiving N77,000 instead of the usual N33,000,” he stated.

He highlighted that the approval for the new allowance came from the Federal Government and encouraged corps members to show appreciation by being diligent during their service year.

Reaffirming his commitment to their welfare and security, Ahmed assured corps members that they would not be posted to areas experiencing security threats.

“We will not send our corps members to wherever we have challenges of security threats. Wherever we send them, they should be less assured that the place is safe and secured for them to serve,” he said.
