Governor Dauda Lawal of Zamfara State has urged members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) posted to the state to contribute meaningfully to its development and uphold the values of integrity, discipline and patriotism during their service year.
The governor gave the charge during the swearing-in ceremony of the 2026 Batch B Stream I corps members at the NYSC orientation camp in Gusau.
Represented by the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Youth and Sports Development, Nasiru Galadima Kaura, Lawal congratulated the corps members on the successful completion of their academic programmes and commencement of national service.
He described their graduation as the reward for years of dedication and hard work and urged them to deploy their knowledge and skills towards improving their host communities.
“Let us work together in rebuilding a new Zamfara State. Our people are known for hospitality, resilience and strong communal values,” he said.
The governor assured the corps members of his administration’s commitment to their welfare and security throughout their stay in the state.
He also urged those who may be engaged in electoral duties during the 2027 general elections to discharge their responsibilities with fairness, diligence and patriotism.
According to him, their conduct would contribute significantly to the conduct of peaceful, free and credible elections.
Lawal commended the NYSC scheme for promoting national unity and integration and encouraged the corps members to participate actively in orientation camp activities, especially the Skills Acquisition and Entrepreneurship Development (SAED) programme.
Earlier, the NYSC State Coordinator, Muhammad Lawan Ahmad, thanked the state government for its support to the scheme and advised the corps members to remain disciplined and focused throughout the orientation exercise.
