Obono stated that the advantages of Nigerian corps members deployed across the West African sub-region would include the vast reduction of unemployment among the youths as well as regional exposure.

The National Youth Service Corps may consider deploying corps members to the 16 member states of the Economic Community of West African States Corps, going by one of the suggestions offered at its top management retreat in Niger State.

A lecturer at the University of Ibadan, Oyo State, Prof Oka Obono, gave the proposition to the NYSC top management during the retreat in Suleja, while delivering his lecture titled; “Strategies for Sustaining the NYSC in a Changing World.”

Obono stated that the advantages of Nigerian corps members deployed across the West African sub-region would include the vast reduction of unemployment among the youths as well as regional exposure.

He advocated that all stakeholders should embrace expansion strategies that would be of benefit to the youths.

“Expand operations to the West African region thereby reducing internal graduate unemployment and reducing pressures on the Nigerian labour market,” Prof Obono told the NYSC management.

The don, who described inter-ethnic distrust as the bane of the county's problems, lauded the NYSC Director-General, Brig Gen Shuaibu Ibrahim for his leadership style since assuming duty as the 18th DG of NYSC.

He further advised that all stakeholders must adopt a high level of diplomacy and advocacy to positively engage the unlearned youths who are potential threats to societal peace and national development.

The NYSC DG, Ibrahim, in his remarks, said that the retreat was a platform for the scheme's appraisal of its operations by the top management.

According to a release by the NYSC Director of Press and Public Relations, Mrs Adenike Adeyemi, and obtained by SaharaReporters, the agency will consider the suggestion.

The DG added that the retreat would also help to formulate new strategies to guide its operations in a changing world.

"We will intensify more on our proactive disposition to official engagements to move the Scheme Forward", Ibrahim added.

Compound foolssssssssssssssssss

Nonsense. When Ghana is deporting Nigerians...

Mtscheeeew
Does it mean that ghanians don't churn out graduates yearly.

Countries are striving so hard to create jobs and stimulate their economies. You want to cause more problems for them with Nigeria's uncontrollable population growth.

You people blindly elect a man who cannot tell his right from his left. Now, you want to deploy corps members to other ECOWAS member countries so they can go and take up their jobs - after tribally destroying your own country.

On the bright side, it sounds good though, but the deployment should be done based on the country's request. Language may be a challenge for the corps members deployed in francophone African countries.

Given that Nigeria has French-speaking neighbors, the government should have made French mandatory in WAEC - just like English - to help deepen regional integration.

VIP posting

I have never seen or heard of ppl so bereft of ideas. As in WTH, somebody will just wake up open their mouth waah.

The nation military strength is dwindling, converting nysc to one year military service like some countries are doing will do a lot of good.
They can retain exceptional corps and give others that wish to, the opportunity to serve their father's land.

Doing the above will boost the nation military strength, stimulate loyalty and patriotism as nearly all youth will pass through what it means defending the country.

But, the administrators are confused and totally lack ideas

Something wey them supposed end them wan carry people go Ghana etc.

The gov't hasn't properly taken care of Scholarship students sent abroad yet you wan send nysc corpers around West Africa.

Hmmn

Nysc system that's highly corrupt... Only Abuja or lagos for here na for politicians and children of people wey get money..... They should create an option for people that want to serve in the military or any of the paramilitary outfit..

So this is a means of reducing unemployment among youths in Nigeria?

It is finished oh.
