Peace Corps To Employ 800,000 Youths by Emmysteve(m): 7:58am On May 05, 2016
National Commandant of the Nigerian Peace Corps (NPC), Ambassador Dickson Akoh, has disclosed that the Corps would engage over 800,000 youths when the National Assembly eventually passes necessary law supporting its operations.

He spoke during a public hearing on the Bill for an Act for the establishment of Nigerian Peace Corps organised by the interior committee of the House of Representatives.

According to him, the opposition by the Nigeria Police to their establishment was borne out of police’s fear for a competitor both in operation and in government’s financial disbursement.

He noted that the excuse which the police gave the committee was the same the force gave during the National Assembly debate for the setting up of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) years ago.
Akoh, however, told the committee that Peace Corps was not advocating arms, saying that it did not believe that arms was the solution to the insecurity in Nigeria today.

According to him, “our men are thoroughly grounded. If the military; if the police want to encourage patriotic service, let the youths work freely even. Even if they are paid 10,000, the youths are ready to do it, but with an assurance when there is recruitment into the conventional uniform establishment or employment opportunity, premium is placed on these youths already rendering patriotic services.

“The economic situation may not permit it. So, we have the capacity to engage over 800,000 thousand youths to adequately take care of the schools and colleges,” he said.

they have scammed more than enough before operations self... hmmm

they have employed some people that they have never paid kobo to unto what they paid during recruitment exercise. after they got their uniform by themselves and they would always task them to change their I. D cards every 6 months.
they should consider these people first before new recruitments.



this was my post almost a year ago about their recruitment.

https://www.nairaland.com/2000417/peace-corps-nigeria-recruitment-form


Peace Corps Of Nigeria Recruitment Form And
N40,000 Recruitment Payment
i heard about the recruitment form for peace
corps of Nigeria, and i made some calls to
friends and families that i knew they are still
searching for job . to my surprise , the form cost
N1,500 boldly printed on the form ,besides that ,
N500 was paid to the person that issued the
form, they called that office fee. when they went
to submit the form they paid another fee of
N200 for submission fee. that was not enough ,it
was their they were told to prepare the sum of
N40,000 for 3weeeks training . in fact they were
asked to confirm it from the organization
website which they did and was true. the
question is that , after paying this huge amount
of money which they have gotten through
cooperative from different family members .
what is the assurance that they will get this job .
or this is another scam and added pain to the
unemployed youths of this country. for the past
3weeks now the have been telling them and
changing training venues for applicants . they
asked them to come to oshogbo for the training
next Wednesday .the funniest part, they gave
them a personal account number to pay the
N40,000 to . i told my people not to pay any
money until they get to the camp and see things
for themselves.
please put us through.

Like someone asked what is their core function. till date most people don't understand the actual job of the NSCDC (Civil Defence). After three years they would start advocating for the use of arms like the civil defense did.

We should not just do things without any clear cut plans. What role do they want to perform that the Police, Civil Defence, NYSC, Imigration, Prisons are not currently mandated to carry out.

Can the government pay their bills. In this era when government is struggling to pay staff salaries.
