He also highlighted the NYSC’s commitment to ensuring the security and welfare of all corps members. However, he advised them to take personal responsibility for their safety by adhering to essential security protocols and avoiding risky behaviors that could endanger their well-being.

The NYSC, through a press release by its acting Director of Information and Public Relations, Caroline Embu, reaffirmed that corps members are vital to the development of their communities and the nation, encouraging them to embrace the values and responsibilities of service.
