Dear Honourable Minister,
I do not know whether Adire will ultimately be adopted for the NYSC uniform, but I do know this:
I am a talented Adire designer, and I would be honoured to contribute to the production process should the initiative become a reality.
I am also the founder of a legally registered Limited Liability Company with the capacity to execute contracts professionally and at scale.
Beyond producing premium handmade Adire, my company has the expertise to deliver professionally tailored uniforms, contributing across the entire value chain from sourcing locally produced textiles (including those from Funtua Textile Mills), to Adire production, garment construction, and quality finishing.
This is more than a uniform project. It is an opportunity to showcase Nigerian creativity, strengthen local manufacturing, support indigenous businesses, and create sustainable jobs across the textile and fashion value chain.
If the goal is to promote Made-in-Nigeria solutions, I would be proud to contribute my skills, experience, and the capacity of my company to that vision.
Thank you for considering indigenous businesses and the incredible talent we have within our borders.

Please help me repost till he sees this.
@DrJoeAbah@oviosu You are very correct about the children of the poor taking pride in it. I didn't fancy it because I didn't think it was relevant (something I think the new reform attempts to solve now) but majority of the people in camp were really just HAPPY to have made it there.
@jdayz__ I think it has a deeper meaning. It paints the picture of the state of the world, where Africa has all the natural and human resources but the west are using it to better themselves instead.
@Osi_Suave Everywhere. I believe the person that will redeem this country just need to focus on children less than 4yrs. Ensure they put them in boarding facilities without access by corrupt adults. Like, it is getting worse daily.

I am looking for the woman who made the viral video last year when she sailed with Nigerian Navy Ship KADA. Please reach out because you have a free pass to sail with us once again. If you have the stomach for it, we will fly you out to sea on a Nigerian Navy helicopter—just make sure to tell an even better story this time!
