Service Year Of 158 Corpers Extended by Godson201333(m): 12:37am On Jun 07, 2013
National Youth Service Corps members

The National Youth Service Corps has sanctioned over 158 corps members for various offences, The Punch gathered on Thursday.

While some of them would repeat the service year, others had theirs extended for between two weeks and five months.

The culprits were part of the 2012 Batch ‘B’ corps members, who passed out across the country on Thursday.

This came as seven corps members died within the period in Rivers and Nasarawa states.

In Osun State, the NYSC state Coordinator, Mrs. Mojibola Eboagwu, said 21 corps members, who absconded from service, would be sanctioned.

In an address at the ceremony in the state, Eboagwu added that nine corps members, who absented themselves from duty, would face sanction.

Eboagwu said, “I am glad that the majority of the 3, 797 corps members passing out today have proved to be good ambassadors of the scheme.

“Ten corps members, who have distinguished themselves in various ways shall receive state awards.

“Twenty-five others will be given commendations. Nine corps members, who have committed such offences such as absenteeism and 21 who absconded from service are to be sanctioned.

“Their penalties range from extension to outright repetition of service in the case of absconding.”

The Enugu NYSC Coordinator, Mr. Hilary Nasamu, said three errant corps members had their service year extended.

“One corps member, who absconded from service, will be remobilised to start afresh whenever he resurfaces,” said Nasamu.

Meanwhile, 21 corps members, whose performances were exceptional, were honoured in the state.

The Rivers State NYSC Coordinator, Mrs. Josephine Okuonghae, said 17 corps members were sanctioned for various offences.

According to her, eight of the corps members will repeat the service, while the remaining nine will have theirs extended to between two weeks and five months.

She noted that the state lost four corps members within the period.

In Akwa Ibom State, coordinator of the scheme, Mr. Akinkunmi Martins, said three corps members would repeat the service year, while 49 others had an extension of between one and four months.

He said, “A total of three corps members will repeat the service, while 49 others will serve extension periods ranging from one month to four months.”

The Ondo State NYSC Director, Mr. Isiaka Kuoye, said 13 corps members would repeat the programme, while 19 others had the service year extended for commiting various offences.

According to him, 13 of the corps members refused to report to their primary places of assignment.

From Nasarawa State, the NYSC Coordinator, Mr Stephen Alabi, who said the ceremony was shelved because of the security challenges, added that 18 corps members would repeat the service, while five others had theirs extended for between two and five months.

The culprits, he said, committed various offences.

These people act as if these corpers are doing community service for a crime they committed. They're serving their country and it's not by force to serve one's country. It's a matter of choice.

For those whose service year is extended,would they still be paid allowee? If yes,then it makes much sense. Better to be receiving allowee than to be unemployed.

Very good..

But still very small..

In my year, I alone knew about 6 guys who didn't serve a day of NYSC after camp. And they did this with the help of NYSC staff. As much as I am happy about this, I also hope to hear that they arrested some NYSC staff as well.

I don't think so


Depending on the punishment..

Some would get half pay, others a token, and maybe some would get nothing. But I think the NYSC always pays.. Even to extended members.

Corpers are paid to serve in various communities across the federation. How would you feel as the DG if some corpers after collecting their allocated funds vanish into thin air without fulfilling their duties?

If you don't wish to serve then don't bother to appear for the orientation program. Sit at home its that simple.

My guess is this - you are yet to go through service year or you fall amongst the sanctimonious types... I detest hypocrites!

Barring conspiracy with NYSC officials or the L.I, do you think absconding corp members would be paid without signing their clearance or pv?

Mr. Charity Begins At Home, the guy was just expressing his views. The last time I checked, it wasn't a crime. So mind the way you address people publicly. Being cool headed is a quality of a 'GUD LEADER'
