The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) and the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) have moved to strengthen their partnership in commitment to the scheme, especially towards achieving credible and seamless mobilization process.
The moves was made when the JAMB Registrar, Professor Ishaq Oloyede and the Management team visited the NYSC Director -General, Brigadier General Yushau Dogara Ahmed in his office at the Scheme headquarter in Abuja on Thursday.
General Ahmed who expressed appreciation to the Registrar for his passion, commitment in the programmes of the Scheme, said the partnership between the two organisations have come a long way, “and we’ll continue to build on it to achieve our goals in the interest of national development”.
Earlier in his address, the JAMB Registrar, thanked the Director General for giving him the opportunity to visit, despite his busy schedules and short notice, adding that the Board is conscious of the partnership between the two organisations.
The Registrar pleaded that both organisations must be proactive in their activities so as to prevent unscrupulous persons from infiltrating JAMB database and NYSC Mobilization process.
He requested the Scheme to add Course of Study and Name of Institution attended on the NYSC Registration Portal for Prospective Corps Members during online registration.
The JAMB Registrar also revealed that the Board would provide it’s list of registered candidates for NYSC so as to harmonise and fish out unqualified candidates that may fraudulently present themselves for mobilization for National Service.
