"You are expected to become brand ambassadors, representing the NYSC, your families, and the institutions you graduated from", he said.

General Nafiu implored them to spend their time wisely and indulge in activities that would add value to them while serving.
"Don't waste your time. Upskill yourselves, find out those skills that are essential in line with your course of study and acquire them".
"Promote positive contents that can promote the culture and values of your host communities and the Scheme", he added.
While wishing them a successful Orientation Course and an eventful service year, the Director General advised them to always seek approval from the NYSC State Coordinator if they must travel out of their State of service for whatever reason.
"For those who may have reason to travel out of Nigeria during the service year, the law says you must obtain permission from the NYSC Director General", he concluded.
