NYSC corper reveals N2000 monthly salary, prompting reactions, Na to teach them benefits of smoking with this salary. A member of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) currently serving in Abuja has taken to the microblogging platform, X, using the handle @OmHaddy, to express his discontent with the meager monthly stipend he receives from his Place of Primary Assignment (PPA). Despite achieving academic excellence as a first-class and best graduating student in both his faculty and department, the corper revealed receiving a paltry sum of N2000 as his monthly salary. In his candid lamentation, the corper highlighted the stark reality that this meager stipend is woefully inadequate to cover even basic necessities such as food and transportation for a single day. This revelation is a poignant reminder of the financial challenges faced by many NYSC corps members as they navigate through their mandatory service year.
Furthermore, the corper voiced his perspective on the NYSC scheme, describing it as a necessary but burdensome endeavor, especially for those aspiring to secure traditional 9-5 employment. Despite his academic achievements, the financial strain imposed by the modest monthly remuneration underscores the systemic challenges within the NYSC program, leaving individuals like him grappling with the practical implications of their commitment to national service.
