Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Osun State Coordinator of the National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, Ekeng Ita Kubiangha, has cautioned corps members against service evasion.<\/p>\n

Kubiangha also urged the corps members to uphold discipline and commitment throughout their service year.<\/p>\n

Kubiangha gave the warning on Thursday during a familiarization visit held alongside the General Community Development Service meeting in Olorunda local government area at the Osogbo Township Stadium, Omo West.<\/p>\n

Addressing the corps members, the coordinator stressed that national development depends largely on individual responsibility and active participation in the NYSC scheme.<\/p>\n

He urged corps members to respond positively to the call to national service, warning that acts of evasion and indiscipline undermine the objectives of the programme.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe clarion call is for you to put in your quota to national development and not to be evasive during service,\u201d Kubiangha stated.<\/p>\n

The coordinator emphasised the need for professionalism among corps members, including proper dressing in the approved NYSC uniform and respect for constituted authority at all times.<\/p>\n

He warned against \u201cunauthorised travel, lending of NYSC uniforms to unauthorised persons and failure to participate in the mandatory monthly clearance exercise.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to him, \u201csuch infractions could attract disciplinary measures, including possible extension of the service year\u201d.<\/p>\n

Kubiangha also charged the corps members to make meaningful and measurable impact at their Places of Primary Assignment in line with the core objectives of the scheme.<\/p>\n

Also speaking at the event, the Osogbo Zonal Inspector, Dolapo Stephen, urged corps members to strictly adhere to the rules and regulations guiding the NYSC.<\/p>\n

He noted that the scheme operates within a clearly defined legal and administrative framework.<\/p>\n
