Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the Lagos State Governor, said he would make available the sum of N5bn to start the full development of the permanent site for the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) Orientation Camp in the state.
He made the pledge during his address as the special guest of honour at the NYSC Passing-Out Parade/Closing Ceremony for the 2024 Batch ‘B’ Stream I Corps Members, held at the NYSC Orientation Camp in Iyana Ipaja on Tuesday.
Governor Sanwolu also announced a farewell gift of N100,000 for each Corps member departing the camp and a sum of N100 million for the NYSC support staff.
According to him, “This year alone I will be making available a total of 5bn that will be used to start the full development of the permanent site for NYSC.
“For this batch, we have 4254, and with all sense of responsibility and because you have been very hardworking, each one of you will go home with N100,000, the money will be made available in your accounts by next week and your directors will credit your account.”
