The Chairman, National Governing Board, NYSC, Mrs Fatima Abubakar, on Tuesday urged corp members to embrace the Skills Acquisition and Entrepreneurship Development (SAED) programme of the agency to enhance their lives.
Abubakar gave the advice during the board’s facility tour of the Rivers NYSC orientation camp at Nowa Tai.
She told the corp members that SAED was designed to teach them different skills and trades, as well as enable them to obtain agriculture loan after their service.
“You are given the opportunity to learn different trades so that if you don’t get white collar jobs, you engage yourself on the skills learnt during your service year to better your lives,” Abubakar said.
She stated that the purpose of touring different orientation camps across the country was to access the facilities provided in the camps and the welfare of the corp members.
The board chairman urged them to listen and obey the management and staff of the corps, wishing them well in all their endeavours.
Abubakar also commended Rivers Government for building a hall at the state orientation camp and noted that it was 97 per cent completed.
“The governor promised to provide facilities in the camp and I believe he has kept his words.
“We thank the government and the people of Rivers State for doing that for NYSC,” she said.
Eairlier, the State Coordinator, Mr Mangofan George, said that the registered 1738 Batch “C” Stream 1 corps members, comprised 658 males and 1,080 females.
