Stop relocating to your communities – NYSC tells corps members
The National Youths Service Corps, NYSC, has urged corps members to stop thinking of relocating back to their communities, stressing that life does not end there.
The Director-General of NYSC, Brig.-Gen. Yusha’u Ahmad, made the call when he visited the NYSC temporary orientation camp on Friday in Kaduna.
Addressing corps members of the 2024 batch ‘C stream ‘I’ currently on the mandatory three-week orientation course, the DG urged the corps members to find home anywhere they were posted to, emphasising the importance of adapting to new environments.
Ahmad highlighted that the corps members must find a sense of belonging wherever they were posted, stating that such mindset was crucial for a successful service year.
According to him, embracing new experiences and being open to change can lead to personal growth and development.
He urged the corps members to focus on making a positive impact in their host communities.
The director-general encouraged them to be proactive and seek opportunities to contribute to the development of their host communities.
He urged them to respect the cultures and traditions of their host communities, advising them to remain peaceful and resilient as they add value to the community they are posted to.
Ahmad underscored the importance of skills acquisition and entrepreneurial development of the scheme.
He urged the corps members to take advantage of the programme to become not just self-reliant, but job and wealth creators after their service year.
”I am sure many of you will choose to remain here after your service. You should also take security seriously.
“Your security is our concern, but no one can secure you more than yourself.
“Skills acquisition is designed to make you independent, self-reliant and productive.
”The Federal government is out to ensure that youths are supported and empowered so they can stand on their own.
“Thousands of your predecessors who maximised the opportunity are now independent,” Ahmad said.
