"My House Rent Is N1.2M a Year, but NYSC Pays N396K Annually" – Corps Member Laments

A Nigerian Youth Corps member has sparked conversations online after revealing the financial struggles of serving in the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC).

In a viral statement, the corps member compared their house rent of ₦1.2 million per year to the ₦33,000 monthly stipend they receive from NYSC, which amounts to ₦396,000 annually. 

The revelation has reignited debates about the adequacy of NYSC allowances in meeting the rising cost of living in Nigeria.
