Buhari Seeks Extra NYSC Funding

President Buhari in his virement letter to the national Assembly request for extra funds to cater for NYSC programme. In his letter, he wrote “The provision for NYSC in the 2016 budget is inadequate to cater for the number of corpers to be mobilised this year. In fact, an additional N8.5bn is required to cover the backlog of 129, 469 corps members who are currently due for call-up, but would otherwise be left out till next year due to funding constraints.”
“Similarly, the provision for meal subsidy for unity colleges is inadequate for the number of students in the schools.”

Buhari thus requested urgent release of fund from the special intervention fund to fund these items.



At last; there seems to be hope for the mobilization of the Batch B 2016 corp members
