Kwara Governor AbdulRazaq Offers ₦50,000 Grant to NYSC Corps
On October 3, 2026, Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq of Kwara State announced a ₦50,000 support grant for all National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members serving in the state. This announcement was made during the swearing-in ceremony for Batch C Stream 1 corps members at the NYSC Temporary Orientation Camp at Kwara State Polytechnic.
The governor stated that the grant is intended to ease the financial burden on corps members, particularly given the current economic conditions in Nigeria. The grant will be available to all corps members, regardless of their posting locations, and is designed to motivate the new batch as they commence their one-year national service.
The initiative comes at a time when many young Nigerians, including corps members, are facing rising living costs, and the NYSC monthly allowance has been criticized for being insufficient to cover basic expenses in most states.
