Corps members to enjoy new minimum wage
The Minister of Youth and Sports Development, Sunday Dare, has said that members of the National Youth Service Corps would enjoy the new minimum wage of N30,000.
He said this in a post via his official Twitter handle on Wednesday.
Dare said that the NYSC Director-General, Brig. Gen Shuaibu Ibrahim would provide details of the new allowance after he has been briefed by the Ministry of Finance and Ministry of Youth and Social Development.
He tweeted,
“Next week the DG NYSC will provide details of the new ‘allowee’ for the Youth Corp members after full briefing from the Ministries of Finance And MYSD.”
The Federal Government had on April 18, 2019 agreed to pay N30,000 as the new minimum wage and on Friday, FG and organised labour agreed on the consequential adjustment, which had been a point of discussion for months.
On Wednesday, the Federal Executive Council meeting presided over by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo issued a deadline for the payment of arrears on the minimum wage.
