The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has warned all the corps members across the country that any act of indiscipline would not be tolerated.

Mrs Rifkatu Yakubu, the Bauchi state Coordinator of the NYSC stated this in Bauchi on Tuesday during the swearing-in ceremony of the 2024 Batch ‘A’ stream II corps members in the state.

According to her, any corps member found indulging in any form of indiscipline would be decisively dealt with in accordance with NYSC bylaws.

“You must equally obey all camp officials as they are your guardians. Indiscipline is not tolerated here and I assure you that if you are law abiding you will have a very fruitful and enjoyable camping exercise.

“On our part, we pledge to do our utmost best to ensure that you experience the regimented nature of camp throughout the duration of the orientation course and the entire service year,” she said.

The state Coordinator commended Gov. Bala Mohammed of Bauchi state for his approval of the renovation and repairs of damaged camp facilities as well as his release of funds to augment feeding of corps members for the orientation exercise.

She said that the corps members would be given the opportunity to serve in the various committees set up for the smooth running of the camp.

This, she believed, would give them practical experience in administration and a chance to contribute to decisions that affect them.

Speaking, governor Mohammed expressed happiness with the sense of patriotism and enthusiasm demonstrated by the corps members by promptly reporting to the orientation camp.

Represented by Mr Mohammed Salees, the state Commissioner for Youth and Sports Development, Mohammed enjoined them to cherish his commendation and become a catalyst for change in this orientation camp and during the entire service year.

Mohammed however, urged them to take with utmost seriousness the noble call and dedicate themselves toward achieving the Scheme’s goal of national unity and development.

“The good people of Bauchi State appreciate and understand the objectives and philosophy of the NYSC.

“In view of this, we have resolved to join hands with you in every way possible to ensure the success of the Scheme in the State.

“I implore you to take with utmost seriousness the nation’s clarion call to serve with greater dedication and commitment. The future of this country lies in your hands,” he said.

A total of 2,172 corps members were deployed to the state, however, at the close of registration, a total of 1,393 comprising of 736 males and 657 females were registered and they have so far responded positively to the realities of the regimented camp environment.
