ABSTRACT
There is need to encourage Nigerian Youth to activelyparticipate
in national integration and development, rather than have passive beneficiaries
of the process of change in society. It is against the back ground that the
NYSC scheme sendsteaming Nigeria graduates from various institutions within the
country to serve their father land for the period of one year in states other
than their states of Origin. Many peoplesee these youths in their uniform
without clear knowledge of who they are or what they stand for. Some doubt the
wisdom in continuation of NYSC and complain that funding of this scheme is a
colossal waste.
It is in realization of the above arguments ascertain the reasons
behind the inauguration of NYSC scheme, to find out its achievements of as well
as the problems militating against it. With the view to finding lasting
solutions to these problems and making appropriate recommendations for
effective operations of the scheme and enable the general public appreciate the
efforts of the scheme in unity and development of the nation. These will be
reviewed in five well arranged chapters of this research work.

CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTION
Every society of the world be it social political, economic,
industrial and etc. calls for innovations and or renovations. As such, the
National Youth Service Scheme was conceived at a time when Nigeria more than
ever needed a systematic involvement of all. Particularly the youths with their
abundant energies and skills in the task of nation building and acquisition of
national consciousness. The event that brought about the thirty- six months of
civil war (1967-1970) and the after effects lightened the need fro a deliberate
programme to:
i. Provide inter-
ethnic understanding, integration and national unity.
ii. Maximize the
country’s human resources, utilization and accelerated reconstruction and
development.
Hence, the federal military government under Gowon’s
administration drew up the National Youth Service Corps Scheme (NYSC) as the
most appropriate programme to put the above mentioned consideration into
action.
As good order is the foundation of all good things, the National
Youth Service Scheme widely acclaimed as one of the best legacies of General
Gowon’s administration, since inception, has continued to justify its purpose
and existence. One can therefore simply stated that the National Youth Service
Corps. Decree 24 of 1973 stated that the scheme is being established. “With a
view to the proper encouragement and development of common ties among the youth
of Nigeria and the promotion of National unity”.
The scheme has like any other human organization suffered some
set-backs due to a number of constraints in its efforts to attain the desire set goals in social,
polices and economic spheres of this great nation Nigeria.
Thus, this study seeks to evaluate the purpose and role this
scheme is expected to play towards the development and unity of Nigeria as a
Nation, as well as the extent to which the scheme has really achieve this
purpose particularly in Abia State.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE
PROBLEM:
No human organization, business or venture is devoid of one
problem or the other. But as dynamic human beings in a dynamic world, these
problems changes from time to time depending on the variables and organization
involved.
The National Youth Service Corps Scheme is no exception. The
scheme has over the years had its share of problems. Some of these problem
militate against the operational efficiency and effectiveness of the scheme and
have therefore.
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE

The case study of this research work is NYSC Abia State.
Therefore, it will not be out of place to give a brief account on the origin
and creation of Abia as a state in Nigeria.
Abia State was created on 27th August 1991. It was carved out from
Imo State and Afikpo now part of Ebonyi State, as one of the nine states
created by Babangide military administration. Abia is a state with about
seventeen local government areas, which include, Aba North, Aba South,
Arochukwu, Bende, Obingwa, Umunneochi, Umuohia south, Umuahia North, Ohafia,
Osisioma Ngwa etc. with the state capital at Umuahia.
Since the creation of Abia state on 27th August, 1991 five
military Administrators as well as three democratically elected civilian
governors have headed the state. They include; Group capt. Frank Ajobena, the
first military governor, Chief Ogbonnaya Onu. The first military governor, Ike
Nwosu, Temi Ejor, Moses Fasanya, Anthony Obi, Dr Orji Uzor Kalu and chief T.A
Orji the present governor of Abia state.
The creation of Abia State gave birth to the establishment of the
National Youth Service Corps. Abia state chapter in the Year 1991 under the
administration of Group capt. Frank Agobena as the then military head of state.
The states NYSC secretariat which in Umuahia, the state capital is
located at No 13 Park Road Umuahia in Umuahia North Local Government area. The
secretariat was established in 1991, and was headed by Mr. Uforth Etuk Ubom as
the first state co-ordinator.
National Youth Service Corps Abia state permanent orientation camp
was formally at Nsulu Game village in Isiala- Ngwa North local government area
of Abia state. But in 2007, the orientation camp was transferred to Igbere by
the then governor of the state, in the person of Dr orji Uzor Kalu. That is to
say that, Abia state NYSC orientation camp is presently located at Igbere in
Bende local government area of Abia state.
At present, Nation Youth Service corps. Abia state is headed by
Mr. A.N Ozornma, as the state co-ordinator while Mrs. Mary Abia was the
emeritus state co-ordinator made the development efforts of the scheme more
challenging. The scheme has been played with several problems ranging from lack
of funding, ethnicity problems, religious/ political crisis, as well as the
unwillingness of graduates and corps members to dedicated service. These and
many more has been a cog in the wheel of success of the scheme.

procurement of materials and to run around. This restricted the research to
areas were much finance is not needed and to enable her meet the deadline.
In spite of the above mentioned limitations the reliability and
validity of the study is not affected.
