members who are yet to get their allowance should expect it in a couple
of days.
The delay was as a result of technical issue with the payment platform. Statement below;
The Management of the National Youth Service Corps regrets the delay
being experienced in the payment of personal allowance to Corps members.
Management wishes to inform Corps members and the rest of the public
that funds have since been released by the Federal Government, but the
delay is as a result of technical problems with the payment platform.
We wish to further inform that the service providers are working round
the clock to restore connectivity so as to allow seamless crediting of
Corps members’ accounts. We are confident that this will be achieved in a
couple of days.
Management appreciates the patience shown by Corps members in the face
of this unforeseen challenge, and appeals for more understanding as we
are working assiduously with the relevant agencies to address the
problem.
Payment of Corps members’ allowance is a top priority for the Federal
Government and the NYSC Scheme, and wish to restate our commitment to
the welfare of the youth on national service at all times.
Thank you.
Signed: Management
