The Director-General of Nigeria’s National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Brigadier General Olakunle Nafiu, urges corps members to diversify their income streams, warning that relying on a single source may not cover daily needs. He delivers the message during an address to corps members in Anambra, emphasizing that financial planning and multiple income options can help corps members manage day-to-day expenses.

Both outlets report that Nafiu frames the advice as practical guidance for corps members working in their service postings. While the core message is consistent—avoid dependence on one income source—the coverage focuses on the need for income diversification to improve resilience and financial stability. The reports do not indicate new policy changes or enforcement measures, instead presenting the warning as personal counsel from the NYSC leadership to corps members.
