He said the Corps Members posted to the Ministry to serve our nation, and their enrollment in the Scheme at this critical period when our nascent democracy is trying to find its feet places you in a historic position to contribute individually and collectively, to ensure that democratic governance succeeds in Nigeria.
According to him, “As youths, you are to champion the crusade against the social vices, such as yahoo yahoo, waywardness and unruly behaviors that have bedeviled this country. Vices such as electoral malpractices and political violence. You owe it to yourself and to the nation not allowing yourselves to be recruited by agents of destabilization to truncate our nascent democracy. It is, therefore, imperative that you make every effort to assist the Government to achieve the Scheme’s laudable goals”.
