The Director General of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Brigadier General Shuaibu Ibrahim, has said that NYSC Corpers can be mobilised for war.
He made the statement during an interview on “Sunrise Daily” programme, which is usually being showed on ChannelsTv. While he was on the show, he was trying to justify why NYSC is good for Nigeria and shouldn’t be scrapped.
In his words, he says: “Corp members are on reserve. They are part of the national defence policy of this country.
“So, where there is serious war, our corps members are educated, they are knowledgeable and they can be trained. You see the drill and so on”
“They are like soldiers. You see female corps members blowing the army horn, playing with the military band.
“If not for the knowledge, where are you going to mobilise such young Nigerians to train them quickly to put in their best for the country?
“So, corps members are on reserve. They are also part of the national defence policy.”
