The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has called on corps members to register in the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) to enjoy the full healthcare benefits it offers.

The Director-General of NYSC, Maj.-Gen. Shuaibu Ibrahim, represented by Malam Ibrahim Tukur, NYSC Coordinator Adamawa State, made the call at the closing ceremony of the 2022 NYSC Batch A stream two Orientation programme in Damare, Girei Local Government Area of Adamawa on Thursday.

He commended the Federal Government for considering corps members under the comprehensive initiative.

In his words, “I enjoin all corps members to take full advantage of this arrangement by registering under the healthcare providers in their service locations and always report promptly for medical attention in event of ill health.

“Corps members can also visit any NHIS accredited hospital during official leave period outside their service locations.”

Ibrahim also advised the corps members to be diligent in the performance of their duties in their respective places of primary assignment.
