The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) in Osun says 15 corps members from the 2021 batch A, Stream 1, are to repeat their service in the state for breaking NYSC rules and regulations.

Mrs Winifred Shokpeke, the State Coordinator of NYSC, said this during the passing-out ceremony organised for the corps members on Thursday in Osogbo.

Shokpeke said eight of the 15 corps members were to repeat the entire service for absconding from camp while the service year of the others had been extended based on their individual offences.

She said they were being disciplined for various offences, including truancy.

She advised the members to make use of the skills acquired through the NYSC’s Skills Acquisition and Entrepreneurship Department (SAED) training to be self-reliant.

She reiterated that the SAED training would make them earn a decent living and contribute to the economic growth of the country.

Gov. Gboyega Oyetola of Osun urged the corps members to be employers of labour and not job seekers.

Oyetola, represented by Osun Commissioner of Youth and Sports, Yemi Lawal, lauded the corps members for their contribution to the socio-economic of the state, especially in the rural communities.

“Let me assure you that the people of this state appreciate your immense contributions, especially in the areas of education, health care delivery, agriculture and rural development,’’ Oyetola said.

He wished them journey mercy back to their various destinations, God’s guidance and abundant success in their future endeavours. (NAN)
