Eta Mbora, a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) member of the house of representatives, has introduced a bill seeking to provide automatic employment for graduates after their National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) programme.
Mbora added that the bill seeks to officially increase the allowance of corps members to cater to their needs.
He said although the federal government recently increased the allowance, the action is not backed by the law and will only be legal with the amendment.
