The Vice-Chancellor of the University of Ibadan, Professor Kayode O. Adebowale, has described the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) as a vital tool for promoting national unity, discipline, and youth development in Nigeria.

Professor Adebowale made this statement while receiving a delegation from the NYSC Headquarters, Abuja, led by the Deputy Director of NYSC Mobilization, Dr. Abraham Oludolapo Ayodeji.

The NYSC team, which included Dr. Ayodeji, visited the university to sensitize final-year students on the NYSC registration and mobilization processes. The team also highlighted the importance of maintaining accurate academic data and ensuring that affiliated institutions align their course titles with those approved by the National Universities Commission (NUC) .
