Nigeria: Brigadier General Olakunle Nafiu, the newly appointed Director-General of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), has pledged to reposition the scheme to address modern challenges and enhance its relevance in contemporary society.
Nafiu made this commitment during his assumption of duty at the NYSC headquarters in Abuja, following his appointment by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Monday, March 3.
The new Director-General aims to achieve this repositioning by aligning Corps members’ jobs with private sector opportunities, improving their welfare, and enhancing capacity development. Nafiu’s vision is to provide transparent leadership that promotes the growth of the scheme, building on the achievements of his predecessor, Brigadier General Yushau Ahmed. The outgoing Director-General was commended for improving the welfare and security of Corps members and staff during his tenure.
