See the Amount Being Paid to NYSC Corps Members in 26 States in Nigeria

The National Youth Service Corps is a compulsory year of service to Nigeria set up by the Government to involve the graduates in the development of the country. Since 1973 graduates of universities and later polytechnics have been required to take part in the NYSC program for one year.

There is a uniform salary paid to the corps members by the Federal Government, but state Governments also provide some allowances to those posted to their regions. In some states, the allowances of the NYSC members differ based on their course of study, with medical corp members usually favoured.

Dis is too small, and why is it different from each state I guess it's the standard of living in different states..
