The FG on this day 26 March fulfilled their promise to Nigerian corpers  who are serving in their various Place of primary assignment in Nigeria, the excitement on corper members faces show how long they waited for this increment.

Finally, Tinubu led federal government has fulfilled one promise to Nigerians youth, we expect him to do more. Every corpers deserves their wages for their services to thr nation.
 
Should the corpers endorse Tinubu for second tenure?

Well it's a good news if it is true at least 77k will go along way more than the 33k the federal government was previously paying them and the good news is that they finally fulfill their promise, and secondly the government should try and do more for their citizens, people are really suffering the hardship is too much even the salary workers are being paid is not longer running a home any more because of the price of food stuffs in the market.

You would have share the link of the newspaper for people to confirm what you are saying that corpers have started receiving #77,000 government promised them,  If truly government has established this payment of #77,000 to corpers in their various primary assignment, it will go along way to help them to cope with this hardship and have some pocket money they will be using to maintain their body through out the year.

Abeg make we wait for three months before we start to they thank Tinubu because surprises no they finish for Nigeria ooh, the next thing we fit see na another announcement say them go suspend am again ooh, I no they talk say as them start to they send am they bad but make e be something way go they permanent, I just they imagine the kind bad  way people way they come pass out this month go feel because e go they like say make them stay another 12 months so that them go enjoy this NGN 77k, I wonder waiting enter the government mind to do waiting them they promise since last year.

This man you funny,anyways,na true say surprises no dey finish for Nigeria because wetin man don see so far since this man called presidoo enter this seat no be wetin man no go dey fear always.
And for the allowed,atleast Corp members go dey happy now because say that money fit take them a long way through out the end of the month.Na big good news say them don finally increase the money.

As it stands, e de official say corper don start to receive the 77k allotted as their NYSC pay. as at yesterday, all corpers don see the alert and more than a promise, we fit conclude say at least, this na good news for the serving corpers make e for help them sustain small for an economy that is not smiling on anybody.

if the leaders do bad, we de criticize them and now when them don finally listen to the cry of corpers, e make sense to also applaud them while hoping that they try and do more to better the lives of the suffering masses. one thing about this whole thing be say, if no be say one corper de bold enough to speak up, the supposed increased minimum wage for just be audio wage when corper for no even smell am. keeping quiet for this country has been the reason why e de be like say things no de ever change. some people still de believe say protest no de bring about any change but for me, all this small smal agitation na the only why when this hardened leaders go fit take hear us.

This is a welcome development from the federal government, finally they’ve started paying the 77k monthly allowance to the NYSC Corp members which has been rumored for a long time even when the senate endorsed it a long time ago, but it wasn’t paid until now. All other federal agencies have been paying the said minimum wage by the federal government ever since it was passed except for the NYSC corp members, All thanks to Raye the Lagos state female Corper who called out the federal government during her viral instagram video which I guess it caught the attention of the federal government and also the general public which makes the government to swing into action to cover their face in shame.

My sister received a call from her girlfriend serving in Kogi about the money and you need to see the excitement eh! Corp members and those who are about going to serve are really excited about the good news. And I'm also happy about it, the federal government has done well for corp members this time.

With this recent Allawee, corp members can take care of their needs, because that 33k wasn't doing much at all considering how expensive things are and most corpers are not given accomodation at their primary place of assignment so you literally have to buy everything for yourself.

Endorsing our President for second tunure because of this is what I can't really say because there are one and million things to be done for Nigerian youths and corp members serving their father land. Is a great news so let's just hope they keep up with the payments sha!

Lol na true I they talk na, unless say person come new for the country you go they believe everything them talk because Nigeria na were government go come public talk say they won build something and later them go reason am as financial mistake to do am but however for the corp members I'm glad for them because even if say 77k no be big money e they manageable especially for those ones way get luck for being posted for community because no transport go they involve na only 5 minutes walk you done reach school.

Naija Youth Corp members are the biggest boys in Nigeria now o :D. When I serve, I no see that kind money sha although our money get value that time because wetin 33k go buy that time, na around 200k go fit do am now. It is good that our government finally implemented this after approval from last year July. This one go help them wella especially as things don hard for this our country because na die those people been dey so o. Normally, them supposed pay arears since na since last year them approve am but here na Naija where things happen in mysterious ways.

Implementation of the 77k for the corps members is a welcome development because the excitement it brought to youth service corps members recently is really impressive, but they should not be too excited because after the happiness they will need to buy things in the market at expensive prices, then it will look as though the amount is too small but even though the money is not enough to cover majority of their needs but the federal government really tried on this one.
       For about a possible endorsement of the president by corps members, increment of Corps members stipends is not enough to consider endorsing a president for a second term. There are so many things yet undone that could have even stand better chances of being a reason for any consideration of endorsement for the president. So, they should just enjoy their new pay and forget about endorsing the president.

Well I can say it’s a Welcome development for Federal Government, but for me it’s not a welcome development. The economy right now is in a bad shape and when you go into the market you find out how inflated prices have been in the market and stores. I wonder how long a 77k wage will be able to sustain a grown adult or young adult in a month. Foods are expensive,
Increament in Corps members allowance isn’t enough reason for any corp member to support Tinubu in 2027, if we should go back to 2023 elections campaign there are so many promises this people made to us which is yet to be fulfilled. This government have failed us so far, there is nothing good of this country we should get excited for an increament in corp member allowance there is absolutely no reason to get excited or get carried away

Sae wetin happen? because of sae em do wetin em suppose do as a president, corpers go now think of endorsing him for second tenure, knowing the kind hardship wey dey for d country, and after their service year no available job kept for them to be managing till that stand fit to cater for themselves.

It will be irrational for any Nigeria to come out openly sae em endorse Tinubu for wetin em d cause for our country. The level of hardship and the cost of living wey d for country, Nigerians never experience am before since the creation of this our country called Nigeria. Wetin go now give you the reason to endorse person wey don bring poverty, insecurity, abuse of power, come our side, sae make we vote for am for second tenure. Sufferings no d tire that person?!!! I wonder.

I just dey talk because we sabi forget in this country, by the time wey election go start dem go gather kopas make dem support Tinubu for president and you go see some people wey go openly support the move. na naija we dey, we like to suffer and smile. kopas sef fit say Tinubu don try for dem by increasing the allowances but make dem know say, the 19k we ear them is more valuable than the 77k today. As kopa i fit use 10k stock my kitchen then, but u can't stock kitchen with  77k today market, the Tinubu lead administration don take Nigeria 3 steps backwards in all ramifications.

so such a person do not deserve second tenure, and i support you mate, no reasonable Nigerians should vote Tinubu come 2027, make we show say him don too suffer us, and we no need am again.The 77k no reach for  kopas to endorse him for second tenure.

If not for the cry and lamentations of that corper on TikTok that went viral and later people used it to do 30 day rant challenge on all the social media space, I'm sure by now they wouldn't have paid that 77k. It was long overdue for them to receive this pay and the delay by the government was just unnecessary.

With or without the corners endorsement, Tinubu would win his second tenure bid without hesitation, in fact on that day of the election, INEC would even announce the result by 4:0 pm that evening. So I don't see how they're endorsement will even make an impact, the president has already made his plans ahead of time, how do you expect a President like Tinubu who has captured the judiciary, the legislator and the executive to even lose an election.

This one na good news and any Corper wey hear this news go dey very happy to be a beneficiary now wey them still dey serve. Corpers really dey try for the nation and they need to dey appreciated for the little contribution wey them dey do for the nation. This increment na due to the minimum wage wey the federal government raise go up, so definitely dem go benefit from am.

I remember when former president Buhari increased the minimum wage to 33K, same was replicated for all corp members likewise former president Goodluck Jonathan also did same. This na good development and taking about voting the president for another time, this increment no carry follow as major thing to take look to give am second chance to be president. Other sectors needs to be checked into also.

Yeah Corper RAYE made the payment to happen fast than expected, because the FG wanted to pay it next year so they will use it for election campaign in 2027. But the pressure she mounted on FG was necessary and today all corpers are happy to receive the  77k allawee.

2027 won't be easy for Tinubu mate, the northern are against him, even the top leaders in the north are not working with him. Tinubu does not listen to anybody and doesn't value them, couple with the hardship the citizens are wise everyway, the 2027 won't be rice election where you share rice to vote leaders, we must loook beyond it.

This is how we go about making terrible mistakes when choosing a leader in this country so corp member should endorse a second tenure of this torture because of 77k?? A temporary and insignificant solution to the big issues we have in our country. He endorsed 77k but the dollar to naira margin is not a joke. The price of fuel is still incredibly high. The debt that Nigeria is owing is extremely more high than when we had subsidy. The constant neglect to other issues that we have seen even in our senate. And because of 2,750 ( two thousand, seven hundred and fifty naira) worth of daily pay they should endorse this man? What happens after their one year service? Is there available jobs for them, can entrepreneur's in this country even survive? Please let's not confuse what was original suppose to be our right to be seen as a privilege and a need to be unnecessarily indebted to a man that doesn't even have any plans for this country.

Congratulations to all corp members on this. Even though the federal government has proposed this for months but I'm happy with them it was later fulfilled.


This alone isn't enough for corp members to endorse him for second time. Let him work on the economy of our country so that an average man can feed himself and his family conveniently.

You know how manipulative our leaders are, they will use this 77k increment for campaign, they can also pay some copers to endorse Tinubu for second term. I Know how this people do thing, they treat us like we don't have choice.  To be frank the 77k is very poornin this  economy, bag of rice is 140k, things are hard in the market, even the 77k can't carry one corper for a month, couple with the transportation hike.

No reason am, if government don start to pay the first payment of 77k, I believe say e don dey permanent be dat. The new corpers wey go come on board na them go happy pass, because them go fit manage this money well for the month despite the hardship. My belle sweet me well well because imagine all the stress wey you pass for school, government go come dey give you allowee likes say na primary school you pass out from.

Finally Corper’s go they receive 77k wey they don they expect since, I know even the 77k no fit do anything again for this country wey we they, but e just better pass as them they collect 33k that time. Na since na him I hear say federal government don approve the money, but the funniest part be say na still 33k people they see until this month wey them finally increase the money, and I they reason say na because of the female Corper wey come social media they complain, the video really went viral, and maybe na Wetin them see be that na why they come pay 77k this month.

Omo, The government's decision to pay corps members a monthly allowance of 77k is a positive development, though it remains inadequate given the current economic climate in our country today.
With escalating prices for basic necessities like food, data, clothes, rent and transportation, many still find it difficult to make ends meet on this amount. In a market were inflation is rampant, 77k often falls short of covering essential living costs, highlighting the urgent need for further financial support for corps members.

Our Government suppose do better!

The 77k is just like 33k sef, if you compare when we serve in 2019,  33k was good for us, we could stock house with 10k and manage the Remaining 23k till month end. Some kopas still save money too, its crazy the 77k  today can't carry one kopa for a month because of high rate of things in the market. Couple with hike in transport and many other things, I feel the state government should be mandated to pay servicing kopas in their state 15k atleast to help kopa give their best for the country.

Na before money get value now, but now even the 77k e no fit buy anything for market again, make I no lie na just suffer Corper’s Dey suffer now, and make I no lie I no sabi d use of the service self, e no really get use again, na before I know say e Dey useful but now, Dey just Dey allow people go suffer. The 77k wey dem Dey pay now no fit buy better thing, but e just better pass 33k wey dem Dey pay before, I just Dey imagine how Corper’s dey survive with the 33k wey dem Dey pay before, Wetin Dey wan buy with 33k. This country matter just get as e be, things are getting expensive on a daily basis, even d new minimum wages no really get use, because dem add money to sallah, but things Dey increase for market also.

Na true wey you talk so, this our country Dey always Dey full of surprises, dem fit just wake up one day just tell us them don suspend am or them no go dey pay again, so their talk no be Wetin to carry out for am, our own be say if them truly mean am too, e good, if them no mean am too, e concern them, we just complain but no mean say we no go move forward, we g still move forward, if them do am or not, e no go still stop people not to go school, even as money Dey or not, people wey Dey school, Dey go and people wey no Dey go too still Dey.
So anyhow we see am for this our country,make we just take am like that, just Dey pray make God Dey always see us through and Dey help us as e Dey always do.

I no sabi this your English but wetin you need to know be say as you collect 33k abi how much, then na better money and many of una wey serve no fit complain becos things better and them they increase am make una know say them dey only increase the NYSC pay becos of how high them don make things go, if not 77k is too much na so them try to play smart, increase the amount as well as the high cost of things and know one thing say as you think say money plenty (like the NYSC pay) for your pocket na so the problem go increase to match the money so e go finish quick. If FG increase minimum wage, NYSC pay and other things then make cost of things for the country decrease na the only way everybody go enjoy their hustle but for now that 77k na rubbish.

weytin you day talk sef, I nor understand you atall. You dey in support say the 33k then better pass the 77k now? Bcos which one be say the 77k too much for kopa. If you don serve before you go know say even 200k no fit carry one kopa for a month, ranging from bills to your up keeping. 

The true be say if you never serve you no go fit attest to this, na only kopa and ex kopa know weytin we dey see to serve this yeye country. 

Read am again, I say if no be say 77k these guys dey always play smart like them make the money make e be 77k so that you wey be NYSC member go happy then forget say them dey use our head as long as them go get enough for themselves. I understand you very well but no matter how them increase anything wey we the poor masses dey put hand eat make we no forget say them must look for way to get something big in return.

Very good news. But we shouldn't forget that ordinarily, this is what it's supposed to look like. Being paid something that looks equal to the job one is doing (graduate level entry salary). Somehow it is a normal thing that is supposed to have been by now... This increment will help CORPERS so much!

A look into NYSC, there are so much the Federal government should do that's not originally the idea behind NYSC but have been introduced and that's fully empowering SKILL AQUISITION AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP DEVELOPMENT (SAED) program. Whereby new skills will be fully learned as a CORPER free of charge. Not limited to physical skills but including various digital skills.

A situation where a CORPER is entitled to learn up 3 different skills as the case may be.


This question seems undemocratic. AS YOU WHERE/AJU WIRE (I mean CORPERS) are not meant to play such part as they are paramount part of the INEC no matter what INEC case has been and will be..

 

Apart from the fact that corpers are not supposed to vote during an election, federal government increment of the allowance given to youths undergoing the NYSC scheme is never a tool to be leveraged on for election purposes.

Just the cost and risk that comes with going for the scheme far surpasses the 77k we are even making a big deal of. The condition for voting for a president should be one that is based on real merit and not just a manipulated one that comes about due to some selfish reasons. All corpers belongs to the different political divide which naturally means they will decides on who to give there votes to based on that factor other than mere payment of 77k allowance that they are actually going to work for.

I don't think the Nysc bylaws restricted corners from voting doing election. Infact coppers are used to rig election for the selfish politicians. So I'm not out of place when I said the 77k will influence coppers vote for Tinubu because they will use them to rig election for Mr president. 

Regardless we must vote for our preferred choice,let no one influence our decision while casting our votes. Because whatsoever we do the future will tell. Let's not mortgage our children future with peanut.

I expected this increment for corp members since the FG implemented new minimum wages for workers, but it took time before they should add it for corpers. This 77k is more reasonable than that of 33k because it will go a long way for them, but the way corpers celebrated for this 77k to my experience during my service  I don't think it's worth celebrating for like that, but it's because they are still new to the system.
This increment will primarily benefit those who relocate to their home state and serve there, even if they increase it to 100k with the current cost of living in the country, I don't think it will make much difference for those who serve outside of their state.


Because of 77k, which will only last for a year? I know some corp members may have foolishly considered supporting Tinubu in second time because of this increment. But to be honest, life after service is the most frustrating and difficult stage for many Nigerian youths because it is this stage most of them have no choice but to go the negative way. And it's this stage you will realize that all those uncles who promised you a job after service are not real.  Tinubu has failed to fulfill all of his promises, making him the worst president our nation has ever had. corp members need to be vigilant about their future.

Yes they should endorse him for second tenure, because Tinubu did them a great favour by increasing the wage which is their constitutional right. Does it make any sense to you? In an organised countries, the youth corpers should be earning more than they are earning. Even the 77k is not even enough because corp members are really suffering. If you have been through the service you will understand that corpers  are totally under paid. If 77k is what they are going to eat for the rest of their lives, they should endorse Tinubu for second tenure. But if they want a better Nigeria they should vote for someone else, since it's obvious that the man can't turn around the fortune of this country. Tinubu didn't do the corp members any favour, so I don't see the reason why they should endorse him for second tenure.

LoL, you just exhibit the anger in every Nigerian youth right now, we're in mess as a country no hope for tomorrow and we the citizens are still part of the problem we can't even shake the corrupt leaders. I know it's hard to fight corrupt leaders especially when it comes to the fact that they control the military.

I was actually speaking the minds of the vulnerable kopas who will rig election for the corrupt leaders in 2027, we all know the government will use the kopa Allawee increment to campaign and some kopas will support them. E sure me say some kopas go vote for Tinubu bcos of 77k. You go see am just wait.

N77k wey nor reach $50 na im people dey jubilate on top. As I see corpers dey happy wen dem Tinubu announce am (dem deserve to e happy anyway), I com begin feel for dem bc dat money nor reach anything. Imagine going home every month wit wetin nor fit buy you a bag of 50kg rice. Even those wey serve wen allowee be N7,500 get betta pay pass those wey dey now wey dey collect N75k bc then dollar rate na around 90/$. That equivalent na around $83, if we divide N7,500 by 90. At today's rate we supposed get idea wetin dat $83 go give us.

Na dis same kontry we get national assembly members wey dey earn over N15 million every month and still dey complain sey e nor reach dem anything. Na dis same kontry we dey pay jumbo salaries and allowances to polithievcians but nor fit pay away essential workers well. Naija na movie theatre, nothing anybody fit tell me.

If you follow Naija news eh, u fit mad oh. The country no get direction na so bad things dey happen in the country. Kopa sef no dey get joy with the 77k Allawee sef, bcos Tp and food stuff don skyrocket. To cook anything you first hold like 10k above person no fit cook with 5k or 3k again. Wen I bin dey service 5k dey stock my kitchen, I serve in northern part of Naija then. But if I wen stock ur kitchen now u need get like 200k. Naija is s not getting better.

Today mark Tinubu two years in office, we no fit point out weytin him use 2 years do. I know say him supporters go say him increase kopa Allawee to 77k. Bcos na de only thing dem dey talk since, and dem go carry am for campaign next year. yeye people

I may not dwell much on the achievement of Tinubu this 2 years because of complaints could change this nation, citizens have complained enough. My view is on the 77k. It is not new that this amount is just little above $48 which can not sustain an average person for 30 days.  With 19.8k paid in 2016 which is almost $100, it is much better than this present pay. The right thing is everyone should be careful with his expenses. Make little investment the much you can. Every corper have to know there's no time for enjoyment. Learn skills and have a backup plan. Anyone in this Nigeria have to be intentional about making money, the government policies are not favourable so everyone has to device a means to survive legally.

Dis wan wey u talk here na d truth and nothing but it. B4 now (during OBJ time go reach Buhari first tenure) I be persin wey dey carry chair siddon on top news matta. But now, news dey fear me bc na so so depressing stories persin go dey hear. D way wey dis kontry dey now, e com be like sey na military regime betta pass dis so called democracy wey we sey we dey practise. No day wey pass wey people nor dey get slaughtered, abi na d open corruption wit impunity wey dey go on? How many we wan talk? It's really sad.

No be lie at all, 9ja na country of surprise, Dem fit talk something today the next day Dem fit even deny say dey talk am anyway na God go help us.  But make I no lie 9ja corpers done be too suffer imagine with the hardship and everything them been dey pay them 33k, sha I dey happy as they done increase am at least e go fit go a long way especially with the way the economy is.

Na good say them increase the allawi but all the same even this 77k no still dey enough because the nature of things for the country no be am at all.if u take a look how everything take dey increase for market u go see say the 77k still no fit dey enough but all the same na to thank the government on behalf of corpers because is full of surprises.

Which time government go do us better because me don tire for everything. As them increase the monthly stipends wey Corpers go chop, how we wan carry survive when the cost of living wan kill the living. Things don high for price, omo to see even sit down chop better food na connection. Which day I reach market, price hikes on commodities and goodes we de buy everyday, even transportation come become the worst.

I just pray things get better fast because I don't think we're heading anywhere again. We will keep going backwards and we know it's definitely not a goo tune to become dominant and relenting on the government. Make we ourselves strive for the best because to make am now come hard oh.

Everybody who still have nothing to do and had not gone for service are contemplating on going for service now because they have added to the previous 33k to make it 77k. As good as this news may sound, I am not still impress with the way things are expensive. If the cost of products were at a normal rate, and they added this money the way they did, it would have been a very good news, but now, the 77k won't even be able to get you anything when it will get finished.

Good news in the aspect that it was increase from 33k to 77k but this doesn't still change anything if you cheek the price of things then that the salary was 33k and the price of things now that it's 77k corp members who serve then will have a little savings than those serving now, even if you are good in managing things you will be a debtor before another month will end because it is from the 77k will be paying transport to your place of service from it you will some dues buy food and other necessary things for your self from it you will take care of your health, my broda e no de easy corp members shouldn't just depend on their alawee to survive.

Honestly, you just said what was in my mind. Although, it’s a good thing that the increment was made but I believe the government should still do more because of the current economic situation of the country, price hike everyday. Let’s say for example in the year 2021, 33k has more value than the current 77k corpers are receiving now because the value of things then where not as high as of today. Even with the 77k a month, one cannot feed properly and still try to sort out one or two things for him or herself, it is not possible. Most places of primary assignment don’t even pay corpers, so you can just imagine. The government should just do more because the hardship during Nysc is not an easy one and at the same time I don’t see the importance of Nysc.

Concerning this issue of endorsement for second tenure, I don't really see a necessity for endorsement just because the wages for NYSC members were increased. The administration we're experiencing at some point was supposed to be a good one but the procedures applied in the policy-making process are nothing to write about, making it one of the worst democratic governments. Ranging from the imposition of taxes to the different ways leadership decisions have been made, I don't think a second tenure will be favourable.

Let's take the Rivers state saga as a case study where a state governor was suspended alongside the state parliament by the President. For God's sake, the state we're talking about (Nigeria) is a federal state and every level of government has its own autonomous power. How can the President of a federal state think of suspending the Executive and Legislative arms of a state government?  It's so uncalled for. This act alone shows the level of autocracy Nigerians will witness if this man is elected for a second tenure.

Let us put together these little facts and make proper analysis before heading to the poll because we (Nigerians) deserve better.
