DG NYSC READS RIOT ACT TO CORPS PRODUCING INSTITUTIONS

The Director General NYSC Brigadier General Shuaibu Ibrahim has warned that the Scheme will no longer tolerate the mobilization of unqualified Nigerians by Corps producing institutions.

Giving a vivid description of the situation, General Shuaibu said that some of the institutions are fond of uploading names of graduates of sandwich and/or part-time programmes in the list of people mobilized for service.

He also revealed that some institutions present names of people who are above the age of 30, which is the maximum age for mobilization.
