From LILIAN HOSEA, Abuja
The Taraba state National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) Coordinator, Mrs. Florence Yaakugh, on Monday appealed to the Taraba Government and other stakeholders to prioritize the security and welfare of corps members in the state.
Yaakugh made the appeal at the closing ceremony of the 2019 Batch C stream 1 orientation course at the NYSC camp in Sibre, Jalingo.
The coordinator commended security agents, camp officials, members of the Red Cross, medical personnel, the media among others for making the orientation course a success. She told the corps members to make maximum use of the skills acquired on the camp in their service to the nation.
“I believe that all of you who came in here three weeks ago are not the same today, you are the same physically but you have certainly changed mentally and psychologically due to the training you have received,” she said.
The Governor of Taraba state Ach Darius Ishaku in his speech presented by Mr. Peter Toro, the permanent Secretary, Taraba State Ministry of Youth and Sports Development, congratulated all the corps members for a successful orientation course. He urged them to integrate with their host communities to foster national unity and development.
Governor Ishaku instructed all the chairmen of the 16 local government councils to ensure the security of corps members posted to their areas.
