President Bola Tinubu has directed the Federal Ministry of Education to formulate modalities for mobilising graduates of the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN) to participate in the National Youth Service Scheme (NYSC).
Mr Tinubu disclosed this at the 13th Convocation Ceremony of the university in Abuja at the weekend.
In 2018, former President Muhammadu Buhari provided his assent to the amended NOUN Act which allows the university to operate like other regular Nigerian regular universities and paves way for its law graduates to attend the Nigerian Law School (NLS) and to enroll for the NYSC.
