This is good news for many young Nigerians, however it doesn’t mean that NYSC is now not compulsory for university leavers.
It is a first step in allowing the Nigerian lawmakers to amend the NYSC decree. This development comes as many Nigerian youth who are fed up with the non-productive nature of the scheme have been clamouring for its termination.
An overwhelming majority of eighty eight Senators voted for the removal of the NYSC decree from the Constitution, whilst 3 Senators voted against the amendment vote.
The lawmakers were very busy during their session yesterday, July 26th, as they also voted on 32 other constitutional amendments including voting for the reduction of the age at which a Nigerian can run for President and the removal of the land use act from the constitution.
For me....the scheme has lost focus n its value ......its a useless scheme when u have a train engineer ask to serve in a primary school.......
ReplyDeleteOK oo
ReplyDeleteHmmmmmmmm,
ReplyDeleteSome people will love this news while some won't, so is not a good news
It's a good news to Many, the scheme lost it value of which it was created for. Imagine when a graduate struggles for 5yrs as an Engineer and end up teaching in Primary school with a stipends of 850naira from a state.
ReplyDeleteWhat a shameful scheme for MANY.
