mukina2: A CORPER IN NEED OF YOUR NOBLE ASSISTANCE IN PUBLISHING HIS PERSONAL CDS PROJECTS
I Am Corper Francis Chidozie Okoye with State Code KW/12B/0069 and Phone Number 08032969195, from Anambra State. A 2012 Batch-B Corps Member, Presently Serving in OFFA Grammar School OFFA, Kwara State, but will be Passing out on the 6th of June 2013.
I executed Eleven (11) Community Development Service Projects during my Service Year; which had direct impact on the community where I served.
Single-handedly, I constructed a Motorized BoreHole, Renovated NYSC Building, Constructed 20ft by 6ft Directional Bill Board and Constructed an Executive Peacock Bird (Okin bird) at Owode market Traffic Junction,which is seen as the symbol and Pride of Offa Kingdom, and so many others.
As a corps member, I strongly believe that you have passed through this road some time in the pass, and you already know and understand where am coming from.
Serving in Kwara State is not as comfortable as other States, because the Government and PPA don’t pay Corpers.
We are only dependent on our federal monthly allowance, which is not even enough at the end of the day. I can’t really say how I had my way, to put up all this projects, because I suffered a lot of insults and humiliation from members of the community and corps members. After the commissioning, I could not boost of feeding money, because I ran dry, trying to put up this projects.
My dreams and vision is to put a smile on the faces of less privileged ones in the community and by the special grace of God; it was achieved.
Please, in the spirit of service, I humbly appeal for your assistance in publishing my Story, 'YOUTH CORPER EXECUTED 2.5MILLION NAIRA PROJECTS IN OFFA KWARA STATE' edited by a Radio Reporter who was present during the commissioning on the 14th May 2013 at OFFA Local Government Secretariat Hall.
Mr. Okoye Francis Chidozie hails from Abatete in Idemili North Local Government Area of Anambra State. A Graduate of Electrical Electronics Engineering, Anambra State University Uli; Posted to OFFA Grammar School, OFFA Kwara State for his Compulsory National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) Program.
Piqued by the absence of some social facilities and the passion to be outstanding and truly fulfill the fundamental purpose of his service year, he decided to write his name in gold and leave his footprints in the sands of time with laudable CDS Projects which had direct impact on the entire community like

Commendations, from Community Leaders, Government Agencies, Corporate Organizations around and Officials of the NYSC.
Those present at the Commissioning were full of praises to the 25-Year-old Corper because he has demonstrated that even amid a generation that is selfish, greedy with common trait of a Me-First attitude, there are some individual who may not occupy any political or economic office but determined to make use of their personal resources to put smiles on the faces of people they encounter or even people in any environment they find themselves. Such may not be born with a silver spoon in their mouth, but an innate quality to impact positively on the lives of people coupled with determination and focus that drives them on.
Against this backdrop, the initiatives of Mr. Francis Okoye, With Registration Number KW/12B/0069 is worth considering.
This noble idea of a selfless youth should be encouraged with not just Verbal Commendations but with State, National and International Awards. The time, money and energy this Second Class Upper Degree (Elect Elect Eng.) holder from Anambra State University Uli could have been channeled into personal programs or that which will benefit his nuclear and extended families or even better him lots in lives but for his humane nature, decided to develop a community where he spent just 11 to 12 months.
The communities that are benefiting from these projects should as matters of necessity encourage him with a Traditional Title that will encourage others to do same.
He spoke with the Press and promised never to give up in rendering social services to people wherever he goes, not minding the inherent challenges. He advised other youths to be selfless and always contribute their quota to the development of their communities and the nation alike.
Without being Preemptive, we are optimistic that Alhaji Abdulfatah Ahmen, the Executive Governor of Kwara State and the Presidency will honour this Hard Working Man for his heroic and outstanding projects.
He appreciated his Sponsors, Contributors and Advisers. .
He also appreciated the people that guided and directed him all through his stay in Kwara State. In his words, “They made me feel at home even when am not home”. He is so grateful to the Management and Staff of NYSC Secretariat Ilorin.
Finally, he remained indebted to his parents Chief and Mrs. Christopher Okoye, His Siblings Ebele Okoye, Nkeiruka Okoye, Somtochukwu Okoye and Ogechukwu Okoye for their endless Love, Prayers and Encouragement.”
Yours Brother In Service.
