Corps Members Jubilate Over N70,000 Increment Only to Learn It Was Fake; Turn This Fake into Reality — Shehu Sani Tells Tinubu’s Govt

Senator Shehu Sani has urged the Federal Government to make the news about implementing N70,000 salary Increment for corp members a reality.

Expectations of corp members have risen high since the announcement of an increase in the minimum wage to N70,000 by Bola Tinubu.

Corp members were expectant that same amount will apply to them only to be greeted with the shocking news that it was fake.

Earlier on Sunday in a statement signed by Eddy Megwa, the NYSC Director of Information and Public Relations, the Scheme called the story misleading.

NYSC clarified that no directive has been issued by the relevant authorities to begin paying a N70,000 minimum wage to Corps Members or to upgrade their accounts.

Reacting to this development, Sani took to his Official X handle on Sunday to make a humorous comment that the federal government should turn the fake news of N70,000 increment to a real one as such fake is a good fake.

Sani wrote, “The Youth Corpers jubilated over the 70k increment only to be told it’s fake news.

“The FG should just turn the fake to real;this fake is a good fake.”
