Filmmakers have been asked to always seek proper approval from the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) management before using corps members’ uniform in their movies.

Mr Christian Oru, NYSC Assistant Director of Legal Services, said this during a meeting between National Film and Video Censors Board (NFVCB) and creative industry stakeholders in Lagos.

Oru said “For any filmmaker that wants any of his casts to wear the corps members’ uniform while shooting movies, we require that you write an application letter to NYSC to indicate your interest. We also demand that you submit your script to us for proper vetting to know how NYSC will be represented. We know the script is your copyright and we will do everything to ensure confidentiality. We want a token from what you generate from the production of such movies where our uniforms are used, this is known as administrative charges. This is because we spend money to produce these uniforms, we will like to work with you and we promise that we will all be on the same page to ensure we are developing the industry and the nation as well”
