NYSC / National Youth Service Corps - Eligibility For Service by lokinapor: 7:55am On Jun 15, 2020 |
The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) is a scheme set up by the Nigerian government to involve Nigerian graduates in nation building and the development of the country. There is no military conscription in Nigeria, but since 1973 graduates of universities and later polytechnics have been required to take part in the National Youth Service Corps program for one year.[1] This is known as national service year. Ahmadu Ali served as the first Director-General of the NYSC until 1975.[2] The incumbent Director-General is Shuaibu Ibrahim. https://www.papercrowd.com/c/a-way-to-pass-and803-exam-with-and803-dumps-pdf-2020latest/24740 https://www.papercrowd.com/c/android-and802-dumps-pdf-perfection-for-and802-exam-2020/24744 https://www.papercrowd.com/c/officially-created-and402-dumps-pdf-proper-way-to-pass-2020/24746 https://www.papercrowd.com/c/buy-and403-dumps-pdf-for-android-and403-exam-questions-2020/24748 https://www.papercrowd.com/c/get-100-android-and801-dumps-pdf-official-and801-exam-dumps-2020/24749 https://www.papercrowd.com/c/valid-and801-dumps-pdf-newly-updated-and801-exam-dumps-2020/24751 https://www.papercrowd.com/c/most-accurate-4a0n02-dumps-pdf-best-4a0n02-exam-dumps-2020/24754 https://www.papercrowd.com/c/unique-4a0n01-dumps-pdf-professional-4a0n01-exam-dumps-2020/24755 https://www.papercrowd.com/c/a-way-to-pass-4a0255-exam-with-help-of-4a0255-dumps-pdf-2020/24758 https://www.papercrowd.com/c/get-4a0c02-dumps-pdf-for-4a0c02-exam-dumps-2020latest/24760 https://www.papercrowd.com/c/save-20-on-4a0c01-dumps-pdf-and-4a0c01-exam-dumps-2020/24762 https://www.papercrowd.com/c/test-your-skills-nokia-4a0m02-dumps-pdf-2020-latest/24764 https://www.papercrowd.com/c/reliable-4a0108-dumps-pdf-a-way-of-perfection-2020-latest/24765 Major General Suleiman Kazaure was appointed director general of the NYSC on 18 April 2016, and served as the 17th DG of the scheme until his redeployment to the Nigerian Army Resource Centre on 26 April 2019.

It was established based on decree No. 24 that stated that the scheme was created "with a view to the proper encouragement and development of common ties among the youths of Nigeria and the promotion of national unity".[4] Corps members (participants in the National Youth Service Scheme) are posted to states other than their state of origin where they are expected to mix with people from different ethnic groups, social and family backgrounds, and learn the culture of the indigenes in the location they are posted to. This action is aimed at bringing about unity in the country and help the youths appreciate other ethnic groups. There is an "orientation" period of approximately three weeks spent in a military controlled "camp" away from family and friends. The camps are situated across the 36 states of the federation. [5] There is also a "passing out ceremony" at the end of the three weeks orientation camp after which corp members are posted to their Place of Primary Assignment (PPA). They are expected to work as full-time staff at their PPA with exception of one working day devoted for the execution of community development service. After eleven months at their PPA, corp member are allowed one month of vacation before their final passing out ceremony where they would be issued certificates of completion. |
