NYSC Set To Boost Corps Members’ Allowance, Says DG

In a statement released by Caroline Embu, the acting Director of Information and Public Relations for NYSC, Brigadier General Ahmed made this promise while speaking to corps members at the Kebbi State Orientation Camp in Dakingari and the Sokoto State Orientation Camp in Wamakko.

He encouraged corps members to be patient and to continue their valuable contributions to the country’s socio-economic development, highlighting that their efforts are deeply appreciated.

Brigadier General Ahmed also urged corps members to focus on personal growth and planning for future success during their service year. He recommended participating in the NYSC Skill Acquisition and Entrepreneurship Development (SAED) programme, which provides vocational training aimed at fostering self-reliance.

“Acquiring skills that enable you to create jobs and employ others is crucial,” he advised. “Many former corps members are flourishing in their chosen fields today.”

He assured the corps members that the NYSC would ensure their postings are safe and urged them to remain vigilant about their security.
