While acknowledging the current state of the Amada NYSC temporary orientation camp, the Governor pledged to look into its face-lift while awaiting the completion of the permanent site, which he described as one of his special projects.
He explained the progress of work at the NYSC permanent orientation camp, expressing optimism that the camp would be completed soon.

“We want to make sure that our corps members are comfortable and supported during their service year,” he said.
He also discussed plans for a skill acquisition programme, in partnership with the NYSC, aimed at improving the lives of rural women and widows across communities in the state.
