Brigadier General Ahmed disclosed this when he received the latter and his Management team in his office at the NYSC National Directorate Headquarters in Maitama, Abuja.
He said the partnership between the two organisations have come a long way, “and we must continue to build on it to achieve our goals in the interest of national development”.
Earlier in his address, the JAMB Registrar, Professor Ishaq Oloyede thanked the Director General for giving him the opportunity to visit, despite his busy schedules and short notice, adding that the Board is conscious of the partnership between the two organisations.
The Registrar pleaded that both organisations must be proactive in their activities so as to prevent unscrupulous persons from infiltrating JAMB database and NYSC Mobilization process.
He requested the Scheme to add Course of Study and Name of Institution attended on the NYSC Registration Portal for Prospective Corps Members during online registration.
The JAMB Registrar also revealed that the Board would provide it’s list of registered candidates for NYSC so as to harmonise and fish out unqualified candidates that may fraudulently present themselves for mobilization for National Service.

LG autonomy: Soludo’s action threat to democracy – BAVCCA warns
The Bloggers and Vloggers, Content Creators Association (BAVCCA) has raised alarm over the actions of Governor Charles Soludo of Anambra State, which they consider a direct threat to Nigeria’s democratic foundations.
At a press conference held on Friday, October 18, 2024, the National Spokesperson of the association, Ada Onoja, expressed deep concern over Governor Soludo’s disregard for the recent Supreme Court judgment on local government autonomy.
Ms. Onoja described his actions as a “direct affront to our legal system and a blatant act of defiance against the highest court in the land.”
She highlighted several points of concern, including the subversion of local government autonomy, threat to democratic processes, political repercussions for President Tinubu, economic and social implications, and a call to citizens to demand accountability from elected officials.
The BAVCCA spokesperson, however, urged President Tinubu to take a firm stand in upholding the rule of law, warning that failure to do so may embolden other state leaders to act similarly, further weakening Nigeria’s democracy and governance.
She also called on all Nigerians to hold elected officials accountable for their actions and to champion the rule of law to ensure that democracy thrives in Nigeria.
