FG lifts NYSC posting ban, targets private sector to fight unemployment

News Update

THE new directive will take effect with the commencement of the 2024 Batch ‘C Orientation Course, according to a memo dated November 18, 2024, from the Minister of Youth Development, Comrade Ayodele Olawande.

The previous posting policy, implemented during the tenure of former Minister of Youth Development, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, restricted corps members to four sectors—education, agriculture, health, and infrastructure. It was designed to discourage private companies from exploiting cheap labour while promoting public sector capacity-building.
