The DG also warned the corps against obtaining loans to execute community projects, suggesting to the corps members to rather source funds within the community where the project would take place.
He said: “Don’t borrow money or use your personal money to execute projects.”
He also advised the corps to either choose personal or group projects that they could accomplish within the period of the service year.
During the address, the DG also tipped the corp members on how they can emerge as the winner of the NYSC Presidential award.
Ibrahim said: “For you to win the NYSC President’s National Hounours Award, your assessment starts from your first day in camp and you must have excelled in all the four cardinal programmes of the NYSC namely; Orientation Course, Primary Assignment, Community Development Service, and Winding-Up/Passing-Out.”
