Former president Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, yesterday, said he would have loved to participate in the National Youth Service Corps, but was disqualified because of his age.
Obasanjo who graduated from National Open University of Nigeria, NOUN with a degree in Theology, said;
”Somebody wrote me a letter when he got to know that I have graduated from NOUN, he wanted me to do national youth service, but unfortunately for him there is age limit.”

The former President was decorated as Grand Patron of NOUN Alumni Association at a meeting with the executives of the NOUN Alumni Association, led by Mr Phil Colman, President and Mr Ayeni Olutope, Southwest Vice-President at his Hilltop residence, in Abeokuta.
Obasanjo, in his remarks said the establishment of NOUN, has presented a unique opportunity for Nigerians to have access to higher education in the country.
He also said that the academic and professional issues  surrounding the accreditation of law course being offered at the NOUN by the National University Commission and the Nigerian Law School would soon be taken care of.
He also said that law graduates of the University would have opportunity to undergo compulsory one year programme at Nigerian Law School.
The Ogun State chairman of NOUN, Chief Bode Mustapha, in his remarks urged Nigerians to make use of the NOUN opportunity. He stated that the institution has prominent graduates like the Royal father, the Awujale of Ijebuland, Oba Sikiru Adetona as a law student and Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola, former Governor of Osun State as student of Theology.
