The convener of the #RevolutionNow Movement, Omoyele Sowore, has told the Tinubu-led government to scrap the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) if they cannot pay a minimum wage to corps members.
This was stated in a post shared on his official social media page on Monday.
Recall that Sowore had earlier criticized the federal government, stating that the N33,000 monthly stipend for NYSC members is a “slave wage.”
He also asserted that corps members should be paid no less than N250,000.
He wrote: “If you CAN’T pay ‘Youth Corpers’ a minimum wage, scrap the National Youth Service Corps!”
