The Federal Executive Council (FEC) has approved a comprehensive reform of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), marking the first major restructuring of the scheme since its establishment 53 years ago.
The reforms are designed to reposition the NYSC into a more skills-focused and youth-development-oriented institution, aligned with national economic priorities.
At its meeting in Abuja, the council approved wide-ranging changes aimed at strengthening the structure and operations of the corps.

The Attorney-General of the Federation and the Federal Ministry of Youth have also been directed to amend the NYSC Act and relevant regulations to provide legal backing for the new framework.
A key component of the reform is the leadership structure of the scheme, as the NYSC will now be headed by a civilian, while the military will continue to provide security support for corps members across the country.
The Federal Government said the overhaul is part of efforts to transform the scheme into a productivity-driven institution that equips young Nigerians with relevant skills and supports broader economic goals.
It stated that the reforms will help reposition the NYSC as a skills-oriented platform aligned with the administration’s ambition of building a one-trillion-dollar economy.
