He stated that the committee would make recommendations on reforms and improvements to the NYSC scheme, not just for welfare.

He said: “The allowances of our youth corps members have been increased from N19,000 to N33,000; that is even above the minimum wage. And that is part of their welfare.

“As we speak, the NYSC under the DG and the management staff has sent forth a proposal to improve on their uniform, to increase their different allowances and that is already with the president.

“If that gets the approval that is necessary; even SAED training will go beyond just three weeks and would be through the entire youth service. So those are the areas that are covered.”
