The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), on Tuesday, apologised to corps members over a delay in the payment of March 2016 allowances.
It said the money was yet to be disbursed by the Federal Ministry of Finance into the scheme’s account, through the Central Bank platform.
In a statement issued by the Head of Press Unit, Mrs Abosede Aderibigbe, in Abuja, the scheme said it was however, liaising with the Ministry to ensure that the money was promptly made available.
The scheme assured that the funds would be duly paid to accounts of corps members as soon as it was disbursed.
Also, it assured outgoing 2015 Batch A Streams1 and 2 corps members that their April allowance (2 months for Stream 2) would also be paid.
The statement reads: “Management of the National Youth Service Corps regrets the delay in the payment of March 2016 allowances of corps members.
“In view of this, corps members and the public are, hereby, informed that management is actively liaising with the Federal Ministry of Finance to ensure that money is released for disbursement to the corps members through the usual Central Bank platform.
“In the same vein, it will be duly paid as soon as fund is released from the Federal Ministry of Finance.
“We, hereby, urge all corps members to remain calm and go about their lawful duties peacefully.”
