Nigeria’s president, Muhammedu Buhari has approved the removal of the Director General of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Brigadier General Mohammad Fadah from office.
Fadah’s removal comes only six months after his appointment as NYSC boss in May, 2022.
Consequently, Brigadier General M.K Fadah is to hand over to the most senior civil servant in the organisation, who is to act as Director General in the interim.
His plans for the NYSC at the time of his appointment included improvement of security and welfare of corps members, enhancement of staff welfare and improving the gains of NYSC ventures.
Other areas in his plans were sustaining the digitisation of the operations of the scheme and deepening NYSC’s impact on rural development through community development service.
