Govocrete: Wrong.... NYSC gives you the opportunity to go to places you would never go to in this country. So you could see Nigeria from a different perspective. So you learn to respect other cultures and know that Not every place is like home so that when you become something in the future you know what policies may or may not work in different regions. And also learn to appreciate the diversity. |

My Opinion: *better plans should be mapped out for Nigerian graduates *that monthly alawee should be boxed as a startup gift after complition of a 6months to 1year skills acquization scheme. *The NYSC scheme honestly should be scraped and replaced with a more organised alternative as proposed below. *thumbs up to the npower initiative,it should be sustained as a means of compulsory employment. Should be structured like an I.T sort of where graduates will be posted to organisations,government and private firms etc for them to gain first hand experience in their respective fields with a fixed monthly pay of 40k * monthly alawee should be at most 40,000 naira,afterall militants get more than that 'The bloody irony'. With the above propositions,unemployment will be largely reduced. In addition, secondary school graduates should undergo a compulsory 1year skills acquisition program before jamb. With the above,government expenditure will be someworth reduced. See areas government will gain from. *nysc monthly alawee 9,500k gain. 10k plus npower 30k= 40k *bicycle allowance: delete *camp maintanance,officers pay,camp officials/domestic staff *food wahala:deleted * NYSC regalia :deleted *lives saved in regrads to religious bias,tribal sentiments,crisis,accidents,molestations etc *NYSC publications:deleted *corruption reduced and eradicated. These Nysc officials and corruption. The benefits of my propositions far out ways the concerns if the NYSC scheme is scrabed.. |

Removing it from the Constitution does not mean it's been scrapped....it will only subject the scheme to unnecessary danger.....What youth want is to make the scheme optional. |

The deletion does not mean it is scraped. IT means it is now open for amendment to suit the present day demand. I see nothing wrong in the scheme apart from the monthly allowance which should be increased. I am currently enjoying mine, sometimes I feel home sick but it is just a phase that will pass. |

I disagree with you sir about canceling of NYSC because of the recent decadence. The factor responsible for the problem in NYSC affects every other area of Nigeria. E.g. ministries in d state, power, police, hospitals, infrastructures to mention few. Prove me wrong, is it not the problem of leadership? I did NYSC and it has been one of the memorable time of my life. The target and purpose of NYSC is not for you to make millions and get job. It is meant to give exposure that will further unite our Nation to the Youth. It is to prepare us ahead of the challenge to face in our place of job. The benefit of NYSC and it good output is much than the problem surrounding is facing presently. innosaint27: |

Richy4: You wrote this based on how you think the NYSC should be run but you definitely know that it is not run this way. NYSC does little toward integration. Tribalism on Nairaland alone is enough to show that NYSC is failing at integration in spite of the billions pumped into it annually. About it not being about me, I agree. It's not just about me but about people like me. I had learnt all I could from books and travelling and asking questions (real Education) and not being an opportunist waiting for NYSC to open my eyes to a subculture within a state. Many grads would never go out again once back from NYSC. So without NYSC, they mightn't have seen outside their place of birth. This is rather discouraging and rather forced. It means ordinarily, they weren't adventurous but were forced to be a little bit, by NYSC. About people making long term friendship, that is a weak argument for NYSC. People collect numbers when parting but I am sure few people keep their friendship. As always, it's all about the person. If you are not sociable or into calling friends or sort, NYSC will hardly change that. You will collect numbers and never call them. About being retained. Yes, some people are getting retained. A friend of mine was retained in a bank. But that also is not a strong argument for NYSC. If NYSC were not failing, we won't have a high rate of unemployment in the country. Millions will not be showing up every time there is a call for application, even by the Police. So, while some are getting retained, the scheme in its entirety is not really solving the pressing issues of unemployment. Yes, for foreign grads, I think it is good if they could showcase their knowledge but then to what audience or in service of who? I don't think it should be for the NYSC. Yes, these countries have military service which is something I have always advocated as a replacement for the NYSC. The military is just the right place to showcase your knowledge. There are so many departments within the Armed Forces. Put grads there and that would be a real service to one's country and one's countrymen. In all, I believe that the NYSC is just another paramilitary stuff gulping our money. If these people really want to help the youth, they should upgrade our universities and make education more attractive. Introduce workshops in universities and fire up the spirit of curiosity and adventure in students. Everything intended to be provided in NYSC can be included in our curriculum. Then, the issue of unemployment should be seriously tackled. Tribalism should be tackled. NYSC has not and cannot solve that. |

Cekpo34: I am elated you recognized that the NYSC scheme is infilterated by anomalies, But let me ask you, Is there anything like positive change in Nigeria? Is there anything like correction? Is there anything like sane amendment without sentiments in Nigeria? THE CORE ESSENCE OF ESTABLISHING THE NYSC SCHEME WAS TO PROMOTE NATIONAL UNITY AMONGST GRADUATE NIGERIAN YOUTH. This forced unity dies often time after POP where it is even seen to exist. Has the NYSC scheme stopped the Hausa man from hating the Yoruba man? Has it stopped the Yoruba man from hating the Ibo man? A forced unity with life span of 12 months is a failed one sir! If the NYSC scheme was optional, do you think most Nigerian graduates will bother about it? I maintain that, the relevance of the scheme ended in the days of our elders. Certainly not now! |
Re: Nigerians React To The Removal Of NYSC From The Constitution by Nobody: 2:45pm On Aug 05, 2017 |
boxypane: I never wasted mine, it was fully maximized sir! However, my view is in broad sense. If the majority who have engaged the scheme cannot sing a new song of merriment afterwards, then the scheme should be reviewed. You don't see clearly by covering one of your eyes, you need to look with both eyes for clarity. Issues of national interest should be looked into holistically without sentiments rather than a simple personal view. If you have 10 undergraduate friends, ask them if they would like to serve should the NYSC scheme become optional. I'm sure their answers and reasons will make you see beyond the nice words you deposited. |

JustMercy: Personal experience is not enough to applaud that failed scheme called NYSC. I am glad your service year was remarkable for you. But can the majority of those who have served say the same? My own personal experience was remarkable, I worked tirelessly, day & night without a dime from my PPA. It was not about the money for me, but making a long lasting impact. That I believe, I achieved. Till date, I still get phone calls from folks over there. However, you don't just conclude on an issue based on personal experience, you look at it critically, throwing sentiments away. You have the right to disagree or agree. I still maintain that, the N-power scheme should be modified a little and the NYSC scheme blotted out. 1 Like |

MyNewJackeT: Absolute trash. The greatest hindrance to traveling across states in Nigeria are safety, security, poor roads and a bad transportation system. In the U. S people travel interstate a lot but they don't have any NYSC scheme there. If the road to Niger or Kaduna or even Borno was world standard with emergency services and Boko Harambe or arm robbers wouldn't attack you on the way, why wouldn't people travel? The main thing about it is that no NYSC can further integrate Nigeria more than it already has. And the program has become a waste. What we need in Nigeria for integration is restructuring. Let each zone manage their resources fully and decide their fate. It is wrong take another regions resources to develop another region. I'm Afonja by the way. |

innosaint27:You can do all this personally without registering for the NYSC scheme. NYSC is a fraud and useless. There is nothing done during NYSC that can't be done without it. And it should even be optional. Let those interested partake in it. |
