Former Corps Member Laments Non-Payment of NYSC Allowance Despite Repeated Attempts for Resolution

A former member of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has voiced frustration in social media, X, over the non-payment of his full allowance, despite completing the service several months ago. The individual, who completed his NYSC tenure and expected to receive his final allowance, recounted a sequence of unsuccessful attempts to resolve the issue.

"It's so unfortunate NYSC didn't pay me my full allowance after completing my NYSC. I have been paid 11 times, but the twelfth one entered and later on got reversed, and until now, I haven't received it," the former corps member lamented.

According to the aggrieved individual, efforts to address the issue through local and state NYSC offices have yielded no tangible results. Complaints were lodged both at the sector level and the state office, yet the situation remains unresolved, prolonging the financial uncertainty faced since the completion of service.

"I have complained at my secretariat and even the state office, but it hasn't been reversed," the former corps member continued, highlighting the persistence of the payment discrepancy despite his proactive efforts to seek redress.

Efforts to obtain comments from NYSC officials regarding the situation were unsuccessful at the time of filing this report.
