The Federal Government has initiated the payment of N44,000 in minimum wage arrears to former members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC). This action fulfills a prior commitment associated with the recent increase in the monthly allowance for corps members from N33,000 to N77,000.

The payment is designated for individuals who finished their service prior to the implementation of the new allowance earlier this year.

Former corps members have taken to X (formerly Twitter) to confirm receipt of the payment, expressing their gratitude and relief.

One user, @Kingpin_black1, posted: ”Thank you NYSC. Thank you President Tinubu. Nigeria will be great again.”

Another user @pharmacist_shezzy shared: ”44k don land. NYSC no carry last. God bless Nigeria .”

Similarly, @ifeoluwa_X wrote: ”Just got my alert. I almost deleted my NYSC account. Thank you FG.”

The payment, widely seen as a fulfillment of the government’s earlier pledge, has sparked excitement online, with many praising the move as a sign of renewed trust and accountability.
