Corps Members Monthly Allowance Increased

The monthly allowance of members of the National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, serving in Cross River State has been increased by N1,900.
Governor of the State, Prof. Ben Ayade, announced the increment on Monday, saying corps members serving in the state will now receive N5,000 instead of N3,100.
The Governor, who was represented by the Commissioner for Youth and Sports, Mr. Asu Okang, made the disclosure during the closing ceremony for the 2018 `Batch B’ Orientation at the NYSC Orientation Camp in Obubra Local Government Area of the state.
He explained that the increase was necessitated by the high cost of goods and services in the country.
He said, “Dear corps members, I must salute you for the successful completion of your three weeks orientation programme which I believe was interesting.
“I am happy to announce to all of you that we have increased your monthly allowance from N3,100 to N5,000 starting from your batch.
“Since the creation of Cross River, the largest contributor to the socio-economic development of the state is the NYSC.
“This is evident in the kind of Community Development Services provided by members of the corps across the state.
“While we continue to appreciate your predecessors for making historical landmark in the state, I charge you to outshine their legacies by going the extra mile towards supporting the dream of a new Cross River.
“We are also confident that as the cloud of the next general elections begins to gather, your neutrality will help in giving the guarantee for free, fair and credible elections.”
Ayade however assured the corps members of security in the state, urging them to relate peacefully with their employers and host communities.
