The politician while explaining how the program could be reformed suggested that it should be removed from the Nigerian constitution.

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP’s Federal House Representative, Eti-Osa Lagos candidate also spoke about NYSC allowances.
“Now you can pay those interested more so instead of paying them N30,000 monthly which does nothing for a young person in Nigeria today. We can pay them N60 – N80, 000.”
