The National Service Scheme (NSS) has assured its staff that it is diligently processing and paying the allowances due to them for September 2023.
The NSS has already received the allowances, and actions are being taken to make payments right away.
In addition, according to the NSS, payments for October allowances as well as any arrears resulting from recent upward adjustments are currently being calculated and will be made available as soon as the September allowances have been paid out.
These assurances are in response to service members’ worries about their unpaid allowances for September and arrears from January through June 2023, which are related to the most recent adjustments to their monthly allowances.

Meanwhile, a group of angry young men who identified themselves as members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) noisily invaded the studios of United Television Ghana, (UTV) on Saturday night during a live telecast of the stations popular entertainment talk show, United Showbiz and disrupted the programme temporarily.
The uninvited guests, numbering about 30 insisted they would not leave the studio until one of the programme’s panel members, Kwame A-Plus renders an apology for remarks they describe as insulting to the NPP’s leadership, the Vice President and the President.
The invaders also claimed the entertainment show has become a political one with a one sided panel who consistently speak against the NPP and incumbent government in a rather insulting manner.
It took the intervention of a team of police men who were called into the studio before the uninvited guests agreed to leave.
