Nigeria: The Continuing Relevance of NYSC Scheme

14 December 2017

The Worth of National Youth Service Corps Scheme, written by Umoru Aaron Eleojo, highlights the challenges and relevance of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) scheme in Nigeria and the need for its continuity in spite of the negative insinuations in some for its scraping. Its highpoints include 'Observations,' 'Experience,' 'Objectives' and 'General Perception' of the programme.

The book also discusses the political evolution of Nigeria, the glory of her forefathers, their socio-economic activities, culture and languages. Together, the author avers that these seem to have been devalued in the 21st century, with concerns that are not ennobling in any material sense. The book equally focuses on positive attitude and self-discipline, as essential ingredients for greatness. They are ingredients that the NYSC scheme should impact on Corps members for the realisation of a better society.
