Ghanaians are calling for the increment of allowance for National Service Scheme allowance.
This new call has got the hashtag #IncreaseNssAllawa trending number 1 this morning on Twitter.
As it stands, personnel who undergo the 1-year compulsory service to the nation after completion of tertiary are taking home GHS559.
From comments sighted by Celebritiesbuzz.com.gh on Twitter, netizens are calling on the government to increase the amount because ‘things are now hard’.
The last time personnel witnessed an increase in their allowance was in April 2017.
The allowance was increased from GH¢350.00 a month to GH¢559.04 a month.
See some tweets below:
After national service, most personnel are not even retained. Others need this increment to save as start ups for their businesses. We're all not relying on government to give us jobs. We just need a push. #IncreaseNssAllawa

We enter the university with no allowances during our study time meanwhile, our colleagues at the teacher training and nursing colleges enjoy allowances and guaranteed employment after school. And here we are with 559gh as NSS allowance for only 10months #IncreaseNssAllawa
