New minimum wage for corpers

You're referring to the new minimum wage for National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members in Nigeria!

As of 2022, the Federal Government of Nigeria has approved a new minimum wage for NYSC members, also known as "corpers". The new minimum wage is N33,000 (Thirty-Three Thousand Naira) per month.

This new minimum wage is a significant increase from the previous minimum wage of N19,800 (Nineteen Thousand, Eight Hundred Naira) per month, which was in effect since 2017.

The new minimum wage is aimed at improving the welfare and living standards of NYSC members, who are often deployed to rural areas and remote communities for their one-year national service. The increased wage is expected to help alleviate some of the financial burdens faced by corpers, including accommodation, food, and other living expenses.

It's worth noting that the new minimum wage is applicable to all NYSC members, including those serving in the 2022 batch and subsequent batches.
