The National Youth Service Corps, NYSC has ordered its personnel whose assets declaration dates are due to make such declaration immediately in line with the code of conduct for public officers.
The Director-General of the NYSC, Brigadier General Johnson Olawumi, gave the directive at the opening ceremony of its 2016 Annual Management Conference held Thursday.
He 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.
Reviewing the activities of the scheme, Olawumi recalled with delight 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 added.
He also said the scheme, through its Health Initiative for Rural Dwellers (HIRD), launched a holistic medical outreach targeted at the rural poor nationwide last year.
The DG added that the programme would be sustained, and would especially be used in assisting the country to contain the spread of lassa fever.
