At the NYSC National Governing Board meeting with chairs of the State Governing Boards on Tuesday in Abuja, Minister of the FCT Musa Bello made this announcement in person through Secretary of the FCT NYSC Governing Board Hadiza Kabir.
To facilitate the NYSC’s activities in Abuja, Bello said that construction on a new secretariat complex was ongoing.
