NYSC - Seven corps members to repeat service year in Nasarawa

Seven corps members of the 2018 National Youth Service Corps in Nasarawa State, are to repeat their service for abandoning their Places of Primary Assignment (PPA), during the service year.

Hajiya Ramatu Sanda, the NYSC Coordinator in the state, made this known in the early hours of today,Thursday 25 july, shortly after a low-key Passing out Parade, for the 2018 Batch “B” Stream II corps members.

The affected corps members are to be remobilised for a new service year, while three others will reportedly face various periods of extensions for different offences committed during the service year which contravened the NYSC bye-laws.

“Some corps members erred during the service year. We have seven corps members who totally absconded from service." She said.

“For those who absconded, they will be remobilised for a new service year. The extension of the other three will depend on the gravity of their misconducts,’’ she added.

The coordinator said the decision to punish the erring corps members was based on the recommendation of the state NYSC Disciplinary Committee.
