At the pre-departure briefing hosted by the Indian High Commission in Abuja, NYSC Director General Brigadier General YD Ahmed expressed gratitude for the invitation to participate in the program, marking the second occasion for Nigerian youths to partake in this opportunity.

“We are deeply honored to receive this invitation, and we see it as another chance to showcase the capabilities of Nigerian youths and to understand our socio-economic parallels and divergences with India,” Ahmed remarked.

The Director General underscored the diversity within Nigeria and emphasized the NYSC’s pivotal role in fostering national unity and development, stating, “The NYSC is dedicated to promoting unity and development, and we remain committed to forging partnerships that support our noble goals.”

General Ahmed highlighted the potential benefits of insights gained from interactions with the Indian National Cadet Corps, asserting that these experiences would enhance the NYSC’s own programs. He charged the selected Corps Members to represent Nigeria with exemplary behavior, upholding the Core Values of the Scheme.

Indian High Commissioner to Nigeria, Shri Balasubramanian, in his address, pointed out shared traits between Nigeria and India, including substantial populations and diverse cultures. He remarked, “This exchange programme will not only allow Nigerian youths to present their rich cultural heritage but also provide them with a platform for international friendship and understanding.”

Balasubramanian praised the NYSC for its contributions to Nigerian development and cited the Scheme’s unique alignment with India’s National Cadet Corps as a reason for its selection. He assured the Director General of a memorable and impactful experience for the Corps Members, expressing the Indian Government’s pleasure with the previous delegation’s participation during the 75th Independence Anniversary.

“To the Corps Members, I say, embrace this opportunity to make global connections and immerse yourself in India’s vast cultural and historical wealth, not to mention the cuisine,” Balasubramanian advised, emphasizing that all expenses for the trip are covered by the Indian Government.

The Youth Exchange Programme is viewed as a platform for international cultural exchange and leadership development, with the Corps Members expected to return enriched by the diverse experiences they will encounter. Eddy Megwa, the Director of Press and Public Relations, underscored the importance of such programs in broadening the horizons of Nigerian youths and creating opportunities for cross-cultural collaborations.
