A cross-section of Nigerians have reacted to the increase in the monthly allowance of Youth Corp members as Federal government begins payment on Friday.

Recall that the Director-General, Brigadier General Shuaibu Ibrahim on Wednesday disclosed the new figures as increased by the Federal Government.

The Director had confirmed that the sum of thirty-three thousand naira was approved for the Corps members in line with the new National Minimum Wage review

Reacting to the new development, some Nigerians commended the Federal government for putting smiles on the faces of corp members, some hilariously asked if they could serve again while others asked if there will be arrears for old corp members.
