Galaxy Backbone (GBB) and the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) say they have strengthened their partnership in order to enhance Nigeria’s digital and human development.
The Managing Director of GBB, Prof. Ibrahim Adeyanju, said during a courtesy visit to NYSC Headquarters on Wednesday, in Abuja, that the duo was committed to national development through a strategic engagement.
Adeyanju said that the organisation’s critical role in delivering resilient digital infrastructure powers government operations and supports Nigeria’s broader transformation goals under the Integrated Digital Transformation Strategy (IDTS).
He said that GBB’s collaboration with NYSC reflected a shared vision of building a digitally capable workforce to drive innovation, efficiency, and economic growth.
“Galaxy Backbone remains committed to enabling platforms that empower institutions and people.
“Our long-standing relationship with NYSC allows us to support the development of young graduates by providing them with practical experience within a high-performing technology environment.
“This aligns strongly with the Federal Government’s agenda to accelerate digital adoption while investing in human capital,” he stated.
He said that each year, GBB receives a significant number of corps members who are integrated into its operational ecosystem.
“Throughout their service year, these graduates acquire critical skills, hands-on experience, and professional exposure that position them for impactful careers across both the public and private sectors,” he said.
The Director-General of NYSC, Brig.-Gen. Olakunle Nafiu, commended GBB for its consistent support of the scheme and its contributions to youth development in the country.
Nafiu appreciated the managing director and his team for the visit, reiterating NYSC’s readiness to deepen collaboration in ways that further strengthen national capacity.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the engagement underscored GBB’s continued support for the government’s developmental priorities, leveraging technology to enhance service delivery.
It will also empower the next generation of professionals, and build a sustainable digital future for Nigeria.
