NYSC extends service year of 10 corps member
service of 10 of the 2,086 outgoing corps members of 2017 batch A,
stream I.
Mr Emmanuel Attah, the NYSC Coordinator in the state made this known
on Thursday during the passing out ceremony of corps members at the
permanent orientation camp in Ede.
Attah said the corps members breached the rules guiding the service
year and they would serve varying degrees of punishment.
He said the punishment would range from extension of service to
re-mobilisation in accordance with the by-laws of the scheme and
gravity of their offences.
The coordinator however, implored them to be committed to a lifelong
service of rebuilding Nigeria as well as make use of their skills,
intellect and development to better the lives of people around them.
The state Gov., Mr Rauf Aregbesola, in his farewell address, urged the
corps members to be self-reliant and not to wait for white collar
jobs.
The governor who was represented by his Deputy, Mrs Grace
Laoye-Tomori, also charged them to arm themselves with skills gained
in the course of the service year as they stepped into the larger
society.
"Do not yield to frustrations and desperation orchestrated by scourge
of unemployment and youthful restlessness but stay tuned to your
course.
"Be discipline, accountable and patient and not be in a hurry to
achieve in a day what will take years to achieve.
"Shun every temptation to do those things of which you and your family
and the nation will not be proud of,'' he said.
