Vanguard reports that Eddy Megwa who is a deputy director of the NYSC in Abuja said the government is yet to inform the scheme of any increase in allowance.

He said the NYSC does not pay corps members directly but that any new development will be duly communicated.

He said: “The NYSC does not pay corps members any sum of money directly as stipends but the federal government does.

“Until the government is ready to implement the N30,000 minimum wage, we cannot say what corps members will earn for their service to the nation.

“Disregard any figure you find making the rounds on social media. When the federal government is ready, it will inform NYSC and we will announce it to corps members through official channels.”

Meanwhile, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) disclosed that it has begun a probe of credentials of applicants from 2009-2019.

Fabian Benjamin, the head of the media and information office of JAMB, on Monday, April 22, disclosed that the probe was being carried out with the aid of a new biometric software.
