Brig-Gen. Nafiu is set to replace Brigadier General Yushau Dogara Ahmed, who was appointed by former President Muhammadu Buhari in January 2023, following the dismissal of Brigadier General Mohammed Fadah over alleged incompetence and poor performance.

The appointment is said to take effect immediately. However, the Presidency and NYSC management have not yet issued an official statement to confirm the appointment.

Sources within the NYSC, who requested anonymity, have confirmed that a new DG has been appointed for the Scheme.

LEADERSHIP also gathered that the outgoing DG, Brigadier General Yushau Dogara Ahmed, was not in the office on Monday – the day the news broke.
