The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has issued a stern warning to polytechnic and monotechnic graduates that failure to complete the mandatory one-year Industrial Training will render them ineligible for national service.
NYSC Coordinator in Lagos State, Mrs Yetunde Baderinwa, made this known in an interview with Newsmen on Saturday.
Baderinwa said that NYSC had issued a circular to that effect.
Baderinwa said, “It has been noticed in recent times that some graduates of polytechnics and minotechnics do not observe the mandatory one-year IT before being admitted for HND programme.
“The one-year IT is a prerequisite for HND.
“They must undergo the one-year IT with evidence of completion before going for HND, and institutions must confirm this before admitting them for HND.
“The directive will take effect from the next orientation camp, and we will not register any candidate who did not complete or undergo the process.”
