The National Youths Service Corps, NYSC, has sanctioned eighteen corps members in Ondo state for contravening the rules guiding the scheme during their service year.

The NYSC coordinator in the state, Mrs Victoria Ani stated this during the passing out ceremony for the 2021 batch ‘A’ (Stream 1) corps members held in Akure, the state capital.

Mrs Ani explained that out of the number, nine corps members would have their service year extended for various misdemeanors while nine others would have their service year repeated for absconding from service, subject to the approval of the headquarters of the scheme. 

The coordinator, however, pointed out that a Corps member would be awarded state honors and twenty-five others would receive the state coordinator’s commendation certificate.

Mrs Ani called on the Corps members to be good ambassadors and eschew acts of arrogance if they wanted to achieve in life.

In a message, Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu gave the assurance that the state government would always provide security to corps members who chose to stay behind.
