Ahmed confirmed that the increment has been included in the 2025 Federal Government budget and will take effect once the budget is passed.

 

“This month (January) has already ended, but once the budget is passed, by next month (February), you will start receiving N77,000 instead of the usual N33,000,” he said.

 

Ahmed emphasised the government’s commitment to corps members’ welfare and security, urging them to reciprocate the gesture by serving diligently.

 

He assured corps members that they would not be posted to areas with security threats, stating, “We will not send our corps members to any areas with security challenges. Wherever we send them, they should be assured that the place is safe and secure for them to serve,” he added.
