The Minister of Youth and Sports Development has said that members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) would enjoy the new minimum wage of N30,000.
Mr. Dare disclosed this on Wednesday via his official Twitter handle.
According to him, 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 in April agreed to pay N30,000 as the new minimum wage and after back and forth with labour unions, the Federal Executive Council meeting, presided over by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, on Wednesday issued a deadline for the payment of arrears on the minimum wage.
