General Nafiu stated further that the theme of this year’s Management Conference; “Transforming the NYSC Scheme to Meet the Yearnings of Contemporary Nigerian Graduates and Society”, was borne out of the realization that both the Corps Members and Nation at large have recently demanded a change in the way of doing things.

He also lauded President Tinubu for the recent implementation of the reviewed allowance for Corps Members, likewise the First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, for her unwavering support for Nigerian youths, which she consistently
