President Muhammadu Buhari has approved the appointment of Brigadier-General Mohammed Fada as the new Director-General of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC).
Fada, who is from Yobe State, will take over from Major General Shuaibu Ibrahim, who spent two tenures.
A source, who made this known on Tuesday, said Fada will resume office on Wednesday.
“The Federal Government has appointed a new Director-General for the NYSC; he’s Brigadier General Mohammed Fada from Yobe State. He was in NYSC on Tuesday and has been briefed by the outgoing DG, Major General Shuaibu Ibrahim.
“After the farewell parade, Ibrahim will come and hand over and leave. It is good that when you’re leaving, it should be tears of joy and instead of people praying, ‘let this stupid go’ and tenure of three years will be like 20 years,” the source said.
