The National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, has charged members of the corps to develop and transform rural communities by implementing projects that meet their immediate needs.
NYSC Ondo State Coordinator, Mr. Sam Amaramiro Pepple made the charge during the closing ceremony of the 2024 Batch ‘B’ (Stream 1) orientation course at Ikare-Akoko.
He said the Corps members cannot afford to let the nation down, urging them to rededicate themselves to serve the people and the nation as a whole.
Pepple, who lauded their spirit of hard work, discipline, teamwork and requisite leadership abilities, encouraged them to build an egalitarian society where no one is oppressed.
While admonishing them to internalise the lessons they have learnt within the spell of the orientation, he enjoined them to be at the forefront of the promotion of the nation’s crusade for national orientation and rebirth as enunciated by the President.
The Coordinator pleaded with them to acquire skills and use them to contribute to the socio-economic development of Ondo State and Nigeria in general.
Speaking on the primary assignment, the NYSC cerebral administrator in the Sunshine State enjoined them to accept their postings in good faith and craft their names on stones thus contributing their quota with greater skills and efficiency to national development.
He advised them to always obtain permission from the appropriate quarters before they embarked on any journey and warned that they should not travel in the night for any reason.
The NYSC Ondo State boss extended his profound gratitude to all camp officials for generously contributing to the success of this course and pleaded with them to keep it up in their future endeavours.
