The Director General of the National Youth Service Corps, Brigadier General Yushau Dogara Ahmed has called for stronger collaboration between the Scheme and the Department of State Services (DSS).
Ahmed made the call when he paid a congratulatory visit to the new Director General of the DSS, Mr Adeola Oluwatosin Ajayi, in the latter’s office.
He remarked that Ajayi’s appointment did not come as a surprise given his record of hard work, commitment and love for his job.
The NYSC chief executive noted that “the decades-long collaboration between both agencies partly contributed to the Scheme’s accomplishments, especially in the areas of national unity, integration and overall development of Nigeria”.
Responding, the DSS Director General lauded the NYSC for, among other things, its human capital and Community Development programmes over the past 51 years.
Ajayi further recalled how the NYSC boss had personally collaborated with, and supported the efforts of security agencies to rescue abducted Corps members.
He posited that “the welfare of Corps members was evidently a matter of great priority for the Director General and staff of the NYSC”.
The director general, who reminisced about his youth service experience, expressed commitment to strengthening the existing collaboration between the DSS and the NYSC.
