He stressed that the scheme’s idea of deploying corps members away from their states of origin is to offer them the opportunity to acquire a broader understanding of the country.
Brigadier General Fadah reiterated the scheme’s commitment to corps members’ socio-economic growth, urging them to take advantage of the Skills Acquisition Entrepreneurship Development, SAED programme and utilise their service year judiciously, which he described as once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
The DG, however, enjoined the corps members to familiarize themselves with the provisions of the NYSC Act and Bye-laws, noting that it will guide their conduct during the service year.
Brigadier-General Fadah also implored the corps members to sustain a high level of discipline and enthusiasm while dissuading them from using the social media to spread fake news and misinformation.
He stated: “You are also enjoined to familiarize yourselves with the provisions of the NYSC Act and the NYSC Bye-Laws. I implore you to sustain the high level of discipline and enthusiasm by remaining compliant with the camp rules and regulations.”
