The National Youth Service Corps Management has discredited the speculation that the February stipend for corps members has been expended on the settlement of bandits.
The management of the NYSC described the rumour as fake news masterminded my mischief-makers, adding that reports that the February stipend for corps members will be paid at the end of March was false.
It disclosed this in a statement titled, ‘To all Corps Members and the General Public’. The NYSC urged corps members to only rely on the NYSC platforms for information regarding the Service.
The statement read, “The Management of the National Youth Service Corps wishes to alert members of the public, especially Corps Members on the fake news currently trending, which states that Corps Members will be paid the February monthly stipend at the end of March 2021.
“The fake information claimed that the fund appropriated for the stipend had been expended on the settlement of bandits.
“Management enjoins all to disregard in its entirety the story which is the handiwork of mischief-makers.
“Management admonishes the originators of this falsehood to refrain from such criminal action. Corps Members are advised as always to only rely on the information on the NYSC platforms.”
