President Muhammadu Buhari has said the stolen funds recovered from former public officers would be used for creating jobs for the youths.
The country leader made a claim on Friday, April 29, at the NYSC Permanent Orientation Camp, Gbakuta, Iseyin, Oyo State, PM News reports.
Represented by Mrs Ololade Agboola of the Ministry of Youths, Buhari noted:
“One of the disturbing problems inherited by this administration is increasing unemployment amongst young people. In fact, the unemployment situation has taken a great toll on the Nigeria youths at their prime productive ages.
“That is why this administration is anxious to recover illicit wealth to channel them into productive economic ventures to absorb thousands into employment.”
Regarding the challenges within the NYSC system, including rejection of corps members, infrastructure problems, lack of resources, Buhari said:
“I have been informed that these problems have persisted due to monumental growth in graduate population and inadequate corresponding resource provisions. These seemingly intimidating obstacles should not dampen your zeal to make the desired sacrifice to serve your fatherland as government is prepared to address these problems.”
