Confusion engulfed the Nigerian Union of Journalists secretariat, Abeokuta on Thursday when a corps member stabbed a colleague with a broken bottle during a send-off.

The corps members were said to be members of the Batch A National youth Service Corps, which completed their service year on Thursday.

It was learnt that following the passing out parade organised by the state NYSC authorities, scores of corps members from the 2011/2012 Batch ‘A’ gathered at the relaxation spot at the NUJ secretariat to celebrate the successful completion of their service year.

Trouble was said to have started when a corper, identified as Chinonso Johnson, was said to have accidentally stabbed another, Uchenna, on the forehead.

Eyewitnesses said most of the corps members were under the influence of alcohol and subsequently, a bitter argument ensued, leading to the further breaking of bottles.

Customers at the beer joint scampered for safety as the corpers engaged one another in a show of strength and superiority.

Chinonso later fled the scene but other corps members pursued and apprehended him. He was immediately handed over to the police at Mobile Force 16 headquarters, Abeokuta.

It was learnt that Uchenna, following the injuries sustained on the forehead, was rushed to an undisclosed hospital for medical attention.

Earlier at the passing-out parade of NYSC in Abeokuta, the South-West Coordinator II, Osogbo, Osun State, Mrs. Abosede Aderibigbe, advised corps members to always be security conscious.

Speaking at the ceremony held at the NYSC State Secretariat, Oke-Ilewo, Abeokuta, Aderibigbe cautioned the corps members against travelling to their various destinations in corps members’ uniform.
