Ekiti State Governor, Mr. Biodun Oyebanji has given a marching order for the immediate construction of toilet facilities at the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) Orientation Camp at Ise/Orin/Emure Ekiti.
The State Commissioner for Youth Development, Mr. Adesola Adedayo who made this known in Ado Ekiti, said the Governor was particularly disturbed by the news of the collapse of a toilet facility at the camp.
He stated that it was however a relief that the two female corps members involved in the incident sustained minor injuries and are medically stable.
Mr. Adedayo, also the Chairman of the NYSC Governing Council in the State, said he promptly moved to the camp for an on-the-spot- assessment of the situation immediately after being informed about the toilet facility’s collapse.
Expressing empathy for the affected Corps members, Mr Adedayo said that they are stable and placed under observation at the Ekiti State University Teaching Hospital (EKSUTH) in Ado Ekiti, adding that the situation is under control.
He said “I have gone round the camp to assess the situation of the Orientation camp and the two Corps members are doing fine now, they are stable, they are fine. The consultant Doctor at the NYSC camp had attended to them. They have also been taken to EKSUTH in Ado Ekiti for further examination”.
“The Doctor confirmed that they are fine and did not want to send them to the Teaching Hospital but we deemed it necessary for observation and assurance that there won’t be other complications”.
“Our Governor has been supporting NYSC in Ekiti State. We have been supporting them every time they have orientation camp and we will continue to support them”.
“No stone would be left unturned to forestall similar occurrences in future but I must assure you that the Corps members are safe, the orientation camp is calm and the two affected female Corps members are also safe”.
