Gov Adeleke Lobby’s Buhari To Assent To Nigeria Peace Corps Bill

President Buhari receives in audience Osun State Governor H.E. Senator Ademola Adeleke in State House on 13th Jan 2023

Gov. Ademola Adeleke of Osun has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to give assent to the Nigeria Peace Corps (Etablishment) Bill before him.

Adeleke, represented by one of his aides, Mr Ajisafe Toyese, made the appeal at the passing-out parade of some officers of the corps, on Saturday in Osogbo.

According to Adeleke, the bill, if assented to by the president, will go a long way in providing jobs for a large number of unemployed youths and also ensuring peace and unity in the country.

He said that the corps would help in complementing the tireless efforts of other security agencies at maintaining peace across the country.

Adeleke called on the corps to unite in forming a common front toward achieving the mandate upon which it was being established.

He advised the new officer cadets to show discipline and focus in the discharge of their duties anywhere they might be posted to.
