The
federal government has denied scrapping the National Youth Service Corps
(NYSC).
There
were reports that the scheme, which was established since 1975 by then Head of
State, General Yakubu Gowon (retd), has been scrapped by President Muhammadu
Buhari, alongside post-UMTE.
However,
the presidency described the story as unfounded and legally illogical.
“NYSC
is a creation of the law. Only another law can repeal it,” Garba Shehu, the
Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity said while
reacting to the rumour.
