The Director-General of the National
Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Brig. Gen. Johnson Olawunmi, has said prospective
corps members with first class degree and their counterparts, who graduated
with distinction from the polytechnics, would henceforth be posted to tertiary
institutions for their primary assignment.
The NYSC chief disclosed this in
Kaduna on Wednesday at the opening ceremony of 2015 Batch ‘B’ Pre-Mobilization
Workshop.
The Director of Corps Mobilisation,
Mr. Anthony Ani, also explained that workshop would critically “look at the
data entry used for the exercise for the Senate approved list, the list of
approved corps producing institutions and the list of accredited courses.”
Olawunmi, who enumerated his reform
programmes aimed at improving service delivery and efficiency in the NYSC, said
if fully implemented, the NYSC programme would go through a seamless process
and add value to young Nigerian graduates.
He also disclosed that Nigerian
universities have been banned from offering post-graduate admission to serving
corps members.
