Gov. Tambuwal advises NYSC

Governor Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto State has called on youth corps members to always strive to build the Nigeria of their dream.

He made the call in Sokoto while hosting the corps members in commemoration of the Eid-el-Kabir.

Speaking at the event, which was attended by a large number of corps members in Sokoto Government House, Tambuwal commended them for their sacrifice and dedication to nation building.

He advised that despite the challenges facing the NYSC scheme and the nation as a whole, the corps members should not lose focus, assuring them that Nigeria would come out of it stronger.

The governor added, “We believe in the oneness of this country. Nigeria is better and greater as one strong nation. Every nation and country have their respective challenges. What we are facing in Nigeria is a passing phase and I believe we shall come out of it stronger.

“As youths, you are all talented in your own rights and as leaders; it our duty to lay solid platforms which will help you all to excel in your chosen careers. In Sokoto, we are happy with your contributions to the development of our state.

“For those of you who want to remain here with us after your service year, we will encourage you to stay. For those who want to go back home after your service, we pray to God to return you to your homes safely.”
