described the report as untrue, urging corps members and
the members of the public to disregard the ‘rumour’.
The statement reads; “the attention of the NYSC
Management has been drawn to a statement being
circulated in the Social Media about a purported reduction
in corps members' allowance by 25 percent.
“Management wishes to inform Corps members and
other members of the public that the statement is false,
mischievous and a figment of the writer’s imagination.
“Corps members, in particular, are hereby enjoined to
disregard the rumour and remain focused as they
continue the service to their fatherland.”
