President Muhammadu Buhari has approved the immediate removal of the Director General of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Brigadier-General Muhammad Kuka Fadah, from office.
Gen. Fadah was dismissed six months after assuming office as the Director General of the scheme.
No reason has been given for his summary dismissal by the presidency but it was gathered that the dismissal of the NYSC boss was unconnected to the fact that the Army officer allegedly exhibited ‘glaring incompetence’ in the six months he has piloted the affairs of NYSC.
It was gathered that the president’s decision was taken on Thursday, and comes amid concerns over alleged “incompetence”.
Fadah’s plan in the NYSC, was the “improvement of security and welfare of corps members; enhancement of staff welfare; and improving the gains of NYSC ventures.
Other areas listed in his plans for the corps are “sustaining the digitisation of the operations of the scheme; and deepening NYSC’s impact on rural development through community development service
According to our source, Fadah was said to have been asked to hand over to the most senior official within the NYSC.
The senior official who takes over from Fadah is expected to act as DG of the corps pending the announcement of a new appointment.
More details later…”
