The National Youth Service Corps has regretted that prisoners in the offices of the Nigerian Correctional Service feed better compared to corps members.

The Director-General of the NYSC, Brigadier General Shuaibu Ibrahim, who expressed this when he showed up before the House Committee on Youth Development for financial plan safeguard on Wednesday, said corps individuals were served a meal worth N217,

He, thusly, encouraged the House of Representatives to raise the distribution for taking care of in the plan's spending plan for 2022.

The Senate Committee on Interior had on October 27, 2021, expanded the day by day feeding allowance of the Nigerian Correctional Service from its present N450 per individual to at least N1,000 each day.

Authorities of the NCS were in the Senate to defend the 2022 budget of the Service, where they proposed an augmentation of the every day taking care of recompense to N750.

The panel, notwithstanding, discribed the sum as horribly insufficient and expanded it in accordance with the current financial real factors, promising to embrace a vertical survey of prisoners' taking care of cost from N450 to N1000 each day.

In his show, Ibrahim, who noticed that it was his first custom of show of the financial plan to the council, said the spending plan of the NYSC continued as before throughout the long term.

The DG said, "The main thing that I will tell you here is that occasionally last year, I guaranteed the board of trustees at the NYSC, we are starting to think critically, that I don't need us to go critically  of all pride asking for reserves so that, in any event, we ought to effectively offer income of real value. This I did last year and we produced over N280m which we paid into the Federation Account.

Ibrahim proceeded, "Our test is in the space of taking care of. The budgetary endorsement for taking care of per corps part is N650, which is horribly insufficient. When you divide it by three suppers (each day), that is N216 per dinner. Along these lines, we are interesting to this council to if it's not too much trouble, help us out.

"Indeed, even as of late, at the Ministry of Interior, the taking care of prisoners was expanded to N1,000. Along these lines, if we can take care of. Criminal with N1,000, our graduates are placing their lives in the assistance of our country… I implore that this council ought to kindly take care of it.
