THE Federal Government has finally began the payment of N77,000 monthly allowance to National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members.

Some corps members on social media confirmed the development.

“NYSC is finally paying 77k to corps members. If you have this girl’s DM, go say a big thank you. I bet the government wouldn’t have listened to you if not for her.”
