The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has sent a delegation to Ilorin, Kwara State to unravel the circumstances surrounding the death of a corps member, Miss Yetunde Shukrah Idowu.

Idowu was found dead along Tanke road, Ilorin recently.

The delegation led by the NYSC director of Corps Welfare and Inspectorate, Mr. Michael Ahile, met with the state director of State Services, the police and the Emir of Ilorin.

The team was received at the palace by Mogaji Are, Alhaji Aremu Zubair who promised that the emir would act on the issue.

The head of the delegation, Mr. Ahile said, “The NYSC management received the news of the death of Miss Yetunde Idowu with a heavy heart particularly the circumstances surrounding her death. So the director-general of the NYSC delegated us to come down to Kwara State to discuss with the security agencies and the traditional institution here to unravel the circumstances surrounding the death of this corps member.

“The NYSC places importance on the welfare of corps members and when things like this happen particularly when they border on death, the NYSC does not take it lying low and that is why we are here in Ilorin, the Kwara State capital to see all the security agencies and the traditional institution, so that they would use their good offices to unravel the circumstances surrounding the death of this corps member.
