A fake Prospective Corps member has been arrested for allegedly presenting himself for registration at the NYSC Permanent Orientation Camp, Iseyin, in Oyo State.


The NYSC State Coordinator, Mrs. Ifeoma Anidobi, disclosed this when the Director-General, Brigadier General Sulaiman Kazaure, visited the camp as part of his 2017 Batch 'A' (Stream One) tour of Orientation Camps.

She said the culprit, Destiny Enimigbai, had been handed over to the police for prosecution.

Anidobi said the 2,231 registered Corps members had since settled down, adjusted to the regimented camp life, and had been well behaved.

Addressing the Corps members, the Director-General, Brigadier General Sulaiman Kazaure, stressed the need for them to join the fight against corruption, which he described as the bane of development in the country.

Kazaure urged them to avoid cutting corners, and imbibe the virtues of honesty and hard work.

"The country needs you; our hope is in you as our future leaders, " he said.

He assured the Corps members that their safety and general welfare remained top priorities of the NYSC Management.
