I’ve lost many corps members to night journeys- NYSC D-G

The Director-General (D-G) of NYSC, Brig.-Gen. Yusha’u Ahmed, has lamented that the scheme has lost many corps members to night journeys, while warning them against such fatal actions.

Ahmed, at a working visit to the Kaduna State NYSC temporary orientation camp on Tuesday, reminded the corps members the dangers in night journeys, adding that they sometime lead to the loss of lives.

He said that most of the drivers were not familiar with the roads, which usually causes accident, among other factors like driving when tired.

The director-general also advised the corps members to be security conscious, saying that no one would secure their lives more than they would do so.

Ahmed further advised them to restrict social media to their personal consumption, while tasking them on respect for constituted authorities.

Ahmed also tasked them on continuing with the regimentation they undergone in camp after their service year, adding that it would help them achieve greatness in all their endeavors.
