The Director General of National Youth Service Corps, Brigadier General Muhammad Kaku Fadah has warned Corps Members that the Scheme has zero tolerance for cultism, internet fraud, hooliganism and other forms of social vices.

He said anyone found indulging in them would be sanctioned in line with NYSC bye laws.

Fadah disclosed this while addressing Corps Members at NYSC Plateau State Orientation Camp in Mangu.

General Fadah also urged the Corps Members to use the social media positively for national unity and cohesion, and avoid using it to spread unconfirmed news that may cause public disaffection.

The DG admonished the Corps Members to acquire vocational skills through the NYSC Skill Acquisition and Entrepreneurship Development to empower themselves for self employment, adding that salaried jobs are scarce to get.
