Twilight, a vibrant Ghanaian young man on Twitter has caused a shake on the platform with a somewhat controversial tweet that he put up regarding the national service personnel.
According to Twilight, he does not see the need for people who are supposed to serve the country, to be given allowances for their service.
He explained that that particular period of their lives was supposed to be a sacrifice dedicated towards the country's development, so receiving a reward for it does not add up.

"The Government paying allowances to people who are supposed to be serving their Nation will never make sense to me. NSS should be free," he said.

Twilight further added that the money the service personnel are given is not a salary, which means work should not seize if the government fails to pay at one point.
In his own words:
NSS Allawa isn't salary but an allowance for serving the Nation, if it doesn't come keep quiet and serve the Nation, it's your duty.

The government itself is supposed to be serving the people and the people are supposed to be serving the country. In other words, money no be problem.

Why won’t we say Ghanaians are part of their own problems? Elsewhere, students are even offered allowances and that maketh much sense but meagre allowances for exiguous exigences are unnecessary?? Really? OMG! God save us
