NYSC boss advises corps members on self-employment

Corps members have been advised to embrace the dignity of labour while striving towards self-employment.

The director-general, Brig.-Gen. Shuaibu Ibrahim, in a statement signed by the director, press and public relations, Mrs. Adenike Adeyemi, gave the advice on Friday in his address to the 2020 Batch ‘B’ Stream IA corps members at the Orientation Camps in Sokoto and Kebbi states.

He also advised them to acquire skills that would make them wealth creators instead of seeking scarce salaried jobs, saying: “Don’t wait for white collar jobs. Respect the dignity of labour, be focused and be committed. Discover your talents and work towards harnessing them and the sky will be your limit.”

The DG further advised them to shun religious intolerance and ethnic bigotry, and instead be in the vanguard for the promotion of national unity and integration.
