The National Youth Service Corps
(NYSC) said there would be “a slight delay” in the payment of Corps members
allowance for January 2016. The agency has further given explanation for the
delay.
In a press statement issued out on
Wednesday, the NYSC management explained that the delay of January allowance
was due to disparities in logistics and planning details for 2016 from the
Ministry of Budget and National Planning, the Ministry of Finance as well as
the NYSC itself.
In this light, there have been
continuous efforts to ensure the situation is addressed in order to facilitate
the payment of January allowance to all corps members. It said: “Management
regrets this delay, and is, therefore, working round the clock to ensure that
all corps members receive their January allowance between now and next week.
It will be recalled recently, the
NYSC ordered its staff to declare their assets, the Director-General of the
NYSC, Johnson Olawunmi, ordered the personnel of the scheme to declare their
assets in line with the code of conduct for public officers.
