The Director General, National Youth Service Corps, Brig. Gen. S.Z. Kazaure has warned corps members to desist from getting involved in politics during their service year.
Kazaure’s warning was conveyed in a goodwill message to corps members of Batch A (Stream I) who commenced their orientation course today at NYSC camps across the country.
The DG cautioned that the corps members must “never show partisanship in national politics whenever you are enlisted on national assignment as Electoral Officers” and that “involvement in national politics is only permissible for you after your demobilization from Service.”
He also enjoined the newly mobilised corps members to live peacefully with their various host communities when they are eventually posted for other phases of the service and also strive to make a positive impact on the communities.
The three-week orientation exercise for the current batch of corps members will end on June 12, 2017.
