Some of the states listed above do not really pay corp members monthly… many of them pay in bulk after the completion of several months in services. For instance, Anambra State, which is one of the highest-paid, pays corp members in bulk after 6-7 months in service.
So, if you’ve only been serving for like two months and having received any pay, do not conclude that the state doesn’t pay.
However, before you can benefit from NYSC state allowance, you must be serving in an institution owned by the state government including government-owned schools, hospitals, secretariats, etc.
In other words, even if Enugu State pays and you’re are currently deployed to serve in a private institution, you’re not qualified to benefit from NYSC state allowance. Therefore, the private company, school or institution you’re deployed to is responsible for every other settlement aside from the monthly federal allowance.
