Corps members can be mobilised for war, says NYSC DG


The Director-General of the National Youth Service Corps, Brig.Gen Shuaibu Ibrahim, says corps members are part of the national defence policy of Nigeria and can be mobilised for war if need be.


Ibrahim said this on Channels Television’s ‘Sunrise Daily’ programme on Wednesday while reacting to moves to scrap the NYSC scheme which is compulsory for all Nigerians who graduate before the age of 30.

The NYSC boss said, “Corps members are on reserve. They are part of the national defence policy of this country. So, where there is serious war, our corps members are educated, they are knowledgeable and they can be trained. You see the drill and so on.


“You can imagine within the short three weeks in the orientation camps, the corps members are moulded. They are like soldiers. You see female corps members blowing the army horn, playing with the military band.

“So, if not for the knowledge, where are you going to mobilise such young Nigerians to train them quickly to put in their best for the country? So, corps members are on reserve. They are also part of the national defence policy.”.....

Nigerian military is running short if personnels, to all you one nigerianist, when the military finally runs short of personnels and needs renforcement, I hope you know they will fall back on you people to fill in the positions, you can't be shouting one Nigeria and kill them all on the stand , you will have to come show your loyalty on the battlefield field . As for me I'm Yoruba married to an Igbo and my loyalty is now with my husband's people ... God bless nnamdi kanu
