NYSC Allowance For Medical Doctors, Nurses and Others: An Insightful Guide

National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members who studied medical-related courses and are currently serving in the health field are often compensated differently from their fellow corps members.

This post explores the NYSC allowance for medical doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and others.

Uniform NYSC Allowance Across All States

It’s essential to note that the NYSC allowance is the same across all states, and every corps member, regardless of their specialty, receives the same amount.

The current allowance for all corps members is N33,000 monthly.

This sum is paid directly by the Federal Government, through the NYSC.

However, corps members’ Place of Primary Assignments (PPA) and their state of deployment often provide an additional stipend.

This allowance is variable, depending on several factors.

Please note: Any other sum corps members receive either from their PPA or state is entirely separate from the federal allowance.

Higher Pay for Medical Corps Members

Corps members serving in the medical field, including doctors, nurses, and pharmacists, often enjoy a higher stipend than other members.

The reason for this is due to the demanding nature of their work and the associated risks. These members are often exposed to deadly diseases and work longer hours.

State and PPA Allowances for Medical Corps Members

Here’s a breakdown of the state and PPA allowances received by medical corps members in various Nigerian states:

  • Akwa Ibom: State N31,000, Teaching Hospital N75,000
  • Bayelsa: State N75,000, Federal Medica Centre N89,000
  • Delta: State N82,000, Federal Medica Centre N70,000

While it is encouraging to see the additional support given to medical corps members, considering their crucial role in society, it is also essential to continuously advocate for fair and sustainable compensation for all NYSC corps members. After all, every corps member contributes their skills and services to the growth and development of the nation.
