Declare Your Assets Now, NYSC Boss Orders Staff

The National Youth Service Corps has ordered its personnel whose assets declaration dates were due to “make such declaration immediately in line with the code of conduct for public officers.”

A statement issued on Thursday in Abuja by its Director (Press and Public Relation), Mrs. Abosede Aderibigbe, said the Director-General of NYSC, Brig. General Johnson Olawumi, gave the directive during the opening ceremony of its 2016 annual management conference taking place in Asaba, the Delta State capital.

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

While reviewing the activities of the NYSC, Olawumi recalled the participation of corps members in the successful conduct of the 2015 general elections.

“I therefore wish to commend the political class, security agencies and the electorate for their support to corps members during the exercise. We assure all Nigerians that given such opportunity in the future, we will not disappoint the nation”, he said.
