The Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, has said that the commission will reward some members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) with automatic employment.
He stated this on Monday at a donation ceremony organised by the European Union delegation to Nigeria and ECOWAS at the NYSC secretariat in Abuja. The EU is donating the equipment used by the European Union Election Observer Mission (EU-EOM) during the recent elections to select NYSC members, in recognition of their contribution and sacrifice in the just concluded elections.
According to Yakubu, the job offer was for some of the corps members who performed excellently as INEC adhoc staff in the last general elections.
He explained that INEC is currently reviewing the 2019 elections and would reward NYSC members who put up excellent performances during the polls.
