2024 Batch B Stream 1 Corps Members deployed to Rivers State have been charged to be responsible and patriotic in the course of the Service Year.
The DG NYSC, Brigadier General YD Ahmed gave the charge when he visited the Corps Members on camp and addressed them at the NYSC permanent orientation camp, Nonwa-Gbam Tai.
He used the occasion to urge Corps Members to add value in their host communities by initiating and executing viable Community Development Service projects that will impact positively on the lives of the people.
Gen Ahmed appealed to the Corps Members to take issues relating to their personal security, skill acquisition and mental capacity building through the series of lectures seriously and urged them to avoid traveling without permission, especially at night.
Earlier, the State Coordinator NYSC Rivers State, Mr. George Mfongang had informed the DG that a total of 1800 Corps Members were registered.
