The Federal Government has said it will not succumb to agitations from some quarters to scrap the National Youth Service Corps scheme.

The Minister of Youth Development and Sports, Mr. Solomon Dalong, in Lagos on Tuesday said the NYSC had come to stay, adding that its merits outweighed its disadvantages.



Dalong said this during an inspection tour of the Lagos State NYSC orientation camp in the Iyana Ipaya area of the state on Tuesday.

He pointed out that the scheme had not only enhanced the socio-cultural and ethnic integration in the country but had also promoted national unity.

NYSC should be scrapped coz it has achieved notn but rather more hatred...how can someone child tht was posted to serve in the north after graduation be killed by the so called boko haram..
so its best every graduands do a one year intenship programme in his or her state after graduation then federal govt should settle him/her financially than expecting parents to risk their children they suffered to train in school to boko haram in the north.,

they should just scrap it out and give us the money to start our own business.
though some fellows would spend the money on Amaka, Funke and Aisha...others might stack Oshogbo weed.....etc

nawa

Lots of FG parastatals reject corpers posted to them simply because of nepotism, my cousin was a victim of that in NPA Lagos.

Let us stop deceiving ourselves.

okay. lalasticlala come see.

NYSC stands for national youth service corps but to people you have actually went through it often refer to it as now your suffering continues.
The condition in which most graduate are subjected to in the name of service to their fatherland is so pathetic. After years of struggle in higher institution of learning graduates are subjected to another struggle in the name NYSC.
With the current condition of living, N19, 800, is not enough for most students up keep. Though, the current president has promise to increase the corps members allowance from N19, 800 to N50, 000 in one of his interview with pressmen in 2014, the president has also reaffirm that he has a special package for youth corps members, no body know how this package is going to be but many hope that it will include the allowance increment.
The program should be improved because it is not carecontinue reading
