The NYSC Osun State Coordinator, Mr Ayodele Adegoke has charged the 202l Batch B stream 2 corps members to live exemplary lives and shine their light brightly for all to see.

He made this known on Monday during the debriefing at the NYSC Permanent Orientation Camp Ede.

Again, he urged Corps Members to be good representatives of the Scheme, and also to cultivate the attitude of punctuality, diligence and hard work in their various Places of Primary assignment.

Furthermore, he advised Corps Members to avoid late night travels as the roads are unsafe and unfit for such journeys. He also called on them to always stay at alert, so as not to fall prey to fraudsters.

Speaking on the channels of communication, he stated that Corps Members should adopt the proper channel of communication, starting from their Local Government Inspectors (LGI).

Mr Adegoke urged Corps Members to participate actively in the community development service in their LGA's, as they are of two categories, namely : Year round known as the General CDS and the Personal. He added that they should strive to leave a legacy behind in their host communities.

"The NYSC scheme is known for its reward system. It gives reward to Corps Members who did excellently well and sanction to those who default the rules and regulations of the scheme.

" Also, Corps Members are advised to read through the security tips and NYSC guide given to them during the orientation exercise, and shun partisan politics and politicians" he added.

Adegoke stated that the NYSC foundation was made available to sponsor major projects in camps, and for Corps Members to access loans for their start-up businesses.

To mark the end of the exercise, Mr Adegoke rewarded some Corps members who where outstanding, one of which was miss Abidogun Fasilat Abimbola with code number 3570 from Platoon 10, who returned a misplaced sum of #5,000. She was also automatically declared a Chief Liaising Officer (CLO) in any LGA she finds herself. The other Corps Members who were awarded, include all three Corps Camp Directors: Maduka Festus Chukwuma (3487), Kevin Weng Jacob (4473), and Adebanjo Tomiwa (3615).

Accordingly, some committed and highly dedicated Corps Members of the SERVICOM were awarded, also. They are Adebayo Kehinde Stephen (3948), Asuquo Mkpoikanke Akpan (4475), and Kayode Oluwabunmi Roseline (3681).

Finally, he thanked God for a casualty-free orientation exercise, and also wished all Corps Members a successful service year ahead.

Adegoke had a short stint as SC of NYSC in CRS.


Very mild mannered man to the much I knew him.
