Nigeria lifts NYSC posting restrictions to combat youth unemployment, expanding eligible sectors.

Nigeria's government has lifted restrictions on where National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members can be posted, aiming to tackle youth unemployment. Previously, postings were limited to education, agriculture, health, and infrastructure. Now, members can work in sectors like oil and gas and telecommunications, aligning more with their areas of study. The new policy takes effect with the 2024 Batch 'C' Orientation Course.
