The National Commandant, Peace Corps of Nigeria (PCN), Dr. Dickson Akoh, has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to assent to the Nigerian Peace Corps Bill.

Akoh, made the call on Wednesday in Abuja at a Stakeholders’ meeting organised by the Northern Forum of the National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN).

According to him, when assented to, the bill will also address the myriad of problems before Nigerian youths.

He stated that it is saddening that there is no concrete law or policy that promotes the needs of young persons.

Akoh also expressed sadness over the inability of the council to elect a chairman due to the age limit set at between the ages of 18 and 34 years.
