This move is aimed at making the scheme more relevant to today’s graduates through skills, safety, and modernization.
Under the new plan, a civilian will now head the NYSC’s daily operations, while the military continues to handle corps members’ security nationwide.
The President has directed the Attorney‑General of the Federation, Lateef Fagbemi, and the Minister of Youth Development, Ayodele Olawande, to update the NYSC Act so the reforms can begin immediately.
Key Changes
--Digital call‑up letters for smoother mobilization.
--Safer postings based on location risk assessments.

--Career‑aligned work assignments matching graduates’ fields of study.
--Camp grading system to improve facilities nationwide.

These reforms are designed to transform NYSC into a skills‑building platform that supports Nigeria’s goal of expanding its economy to $1 trillion.

ReplyDeleteI thought that the reform would be to scrap NYSC entirely as it's been entirely useless

DeleteIt is not useless at all. A lot of graduates gather money from it to start up a business. You learn few things from where you are posted and can also make friends and start life over there.
DeleteThat six week proposal is not a good idea.
