The Director-General of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Brig. Gen. Zakari Kazaure, has charged youths to avail themselves of camp training opportunities in skills acquisition and entrepreneurship development.
Addressing over 2,000 corps members participating in the 2016 Batch ‘A’ Stream II orientation programme at Obubra camp, Cross River State, he stressed that in the absence of white collar jobs, corps members must strive for self-reliance through free skills acquisition programme provided by the Federal Government in the camp.
Kazaure, who said, “A good member of corps members have become employers of labour with various thriving businesses dotting the length and breadth of the nation,” admonished them on good conduct in the discharge of their responsibilities to their various host communities especially, during primary assignment.

The NYSC boss stressed the importance of respecting the tradition of their hosts, just as he urged them to give their best in enhancing community development efforts.
Earlier, the state coordinator of the scheme, Mrs. Ifeoma Anidobi, lauded the comportment and maturity of members of the scheme in the stream, and appealed to the state government for support towards improving the state of infrastructure on the camp.
According to her “this will increase the capacity of the camp for more corps members who will unvaryingly contribute more to grassroots development in the state.
