More about the book
Exploring the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) program in Nigeria, this study investigates the complex relationship between civic service and citizenship. It questions the assumption that such service inherently fosters citizenship and patriotism, revealing that political dynamics significantly influence the NYSC's implementation. Through interviews and discussions, the research highlights the importance of national ideals in cultivating citizenship while cautioning against overestimating national service's effectiveness due to existing socio-political challenges.
