The NYSC Osun State Coordinator, Mrs Winifred Shokpeka has admonished heads of committees and collaborating agencies on proper ethics for the 2021 Batch C Stream 1 orientation course, stating that the essence of their being on camp is to raise a generation of responsible youths.

The meeting which took place on Tuesday at the NYSC Permanent Orientation Camp, Ede, had in attendance the Camp Director, Mrs Funmi Okundaye, Camp Commandant, Captain Oyekanmi O, other heads of assignments and heads of collaborating agencies on camp.

Mrs Shokpeka welcomed the Principal officers stating that the purpose of the meeting at the commencement of the orientation is to forge a familial relationship among the various heads right from the onset and to also discuss the responsibilities and expectations of each committee ahead of the general meeting.

She read out the ground rules to ensure the smooth running of activities stating that all should work towards achieving excellence in their beats. She further stated that the scheme has declared zero tolerance to wrong and deviant dressing by officials and corps members alike. She therefore called on the heads to work as a team and ensure strict compliance to camp rules by all course participants.


Furthermore, she added that all corps members must adhere to proper dressing and should be encouraged to participate fully in lectures and other camp activities. She also enjoined the camp commandant and other security heads to collaborate with NYSC officials in ensuring that restrictions are placed on visitations from outside the camp, in strict compliance with the COVID-19 protocols.


Finally, she called on officials to imbibe discipline and team spirit as leaders if they must lead well and that they should enlighten and train members of their committees toward efficiency, effectiveness and productivity even as the orientation course commences.
