The National Youth Service Corps has directed its staff to declare their assets if they have not previously done so.

The Director-General of the NYSC, Brigadier General Johnson Olawumi, on Thursday, January 28, made this order for those whose assets declaration dates are due.

Olawumi said the NYSC Management had been very consistent in the enforcement of periodic assets declaration by members of staff as well as ensuring strict adherence to policy guidelines in all aspects of the scheme’s operations.

In his speech at the opening ceremony of the NYSC 2016 Annual Management Conference, he urged stakeholders, especially corporate bodies and individual philantropists, to assist towards sustaining the NYSC Hope Alive Initiative which was introduced with the aim of providing succor to corps members who suffer permanent disability during the service year.

The DG told the gathering that the scheme had installed latest security chips that could track a distressed caller easily, and went on to advise corps members to always call the NYSC Distress Call Centre whenever the need arises.

He thanked all host communities and security agencies nationwide as well as other stakeholders, including the Delta State Government, for their support towards the welfare and safety of corps members.
