The governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has declared that each Corps member leaving the camp will receive a farewell gift of N100,000, while the NYSC support staff will receive a sum of N100 million.
This commitment was made during his speech on Tuesday at the NYSC Orientation Camp in Iyana Ipaja during the Passing-Out Parade and Closing Ceremony for the 2024 Batch ‘B’ Stream I Corps Members, where he was the special guest of honour.
Additionally, N5 billion was pledged by Governor Sanwo-Olu to build the state’s permanent National Youth Service Corps Orientation Camp.
He declared, “This year alone I will be putting available a total of 5bn that will be used to start the full development of the permanent site for NYSC.
“For this batch we have 4254 and with all sense of responsibility and because you have been very hardworking, each and everyone of you will go home with a N100,000, the money will be made available into your accounts by next week and your directors will credit your account.”
