Brig.-Gen. Sulyman Kazaure, Director-General, National Youths Service Corps (NYSC), on Monday told the Senate that lack of funds may stall mobilising 2016 Batch A Stream 2 prospective corps members for orientation.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that orientation for the batch is expected to commence on Friday in 37 camps across the country.

Kazaure told the Senate Committee on Sports in Abuja that the money required for the exercise was yet to be provided.

He said that the NYSC had written several letters requesting for the money but that as at Monday, it was yet to receive response from the Federal Government.

According to him, we had written to Federal Ministry of Youth and Sports, Finance, Budget and the Presidency even before the end of the orientation camp for Batch A, Stream One.

“We are presently at a loss in NYSC now as there is no money for us to mobilise thousands of prospective corps members in the Batch A Stream 2 to camp this Friday.

“This is in spite of efforts made by us to get things done in that direction several weeks ago.

“The problem staring us in the face arose from the N13 billion shortfall we had in the 2016 budget estimate which the agency made strong request for its provision during budget defence,” he said.

Kazaure, however, expressed the hope that the presidency may make last minute intervention by providing “the urgently-needed fund for the programme’’.

He told the committee that the Chief of Staff to President Muhammadu Buhari had invited the Minister of Youths and Sports, Solomon Dalong, to see him over the matter.

In his remark, Chairman of the Senate committee, Sen. Obinna Ogba (PDP Ebonyi Central), assured the NYSC that the senate would intervene in the matter.

He said that the senate would convene a meeting during the week for all the parties concerned, including Ministries of Finance and Budget, to find a quick solution to the problem.

“We have listened to you and we are also disturbed by the problem at hand as regards paucity of funds for mobilisation of prospective corps members.

“NYSC is not something to joke with; even if it is through urgent supplementary budget provisions, the problem must be quickly tackled by the Federal Government,” he said. (NAN)
Nigerian students graduate later than their peers elsewhere due to the paucity (strike) in Nigeria's educational curriculum. Nysc which creates more disunity than unity adds another extra year in the delay. Now that it seems Gov can no longer sustain the scheme, is it not better the program is scrapped, so as to save the much delayed youths from more time-wasting. Why is it that our leaders are so inept in every sense..

Good day nairalanders,
it was a sad morning in Gombe state as we woke up to find out that a mysterious fire has razed some shop along cross, union bank road Gombe state. The fire started last night around 2 A.m and burnt everything complete. the shops were made of iron. people usually call it canter shop and its mainly occupied by igbos and few Hausa's. Now the questions that people around have been asking is , is it possible for an iron shop to burn and affect other shops its impossible. I can hear peoples saying that the act was Peperated by some Hausa boys to hurt the Igbo's, but that's not the case because the deed has been done.
Around 3.pm today, the Govonor of Gombe state and his entourage, visited the scene.

Check the statistics. Foreign men do not consider black women attractive so they're less likely to settle with you except you're rich and maybe, fair-skinned . They are less likely to marry you.


All white women ,on the other hand, have a fetish for African men.
They, for some odd reason, consider us better iWe're better hung and more masculine than the white, pale sissies.


It's more common to find a white woman cheating with a black man than a white man cheating with a black woman.

You all should be glad we roll with you.

For the record, we would easily eat a white woman's _vagina than a black woman's which is all dark, bumpy and smelly. Eewwwh!
