We, the youth corpers of postiskum, Nysc camp is calling on the federal government to come to our rescue following the frequent attack by insurgents in Yobe communities very close to the camp. This same security challenge that made the camp to be closed since 2011 and now the governor even with all security escorts could not honour invitation for Nysc swearing for 2017 batch B stream 2 corp members. Our lives are at stake as troop flow in and out as we are denied security information of what is going on in the endless bushes of the camp.
The camp officials were seen busy convincing us not to redeploy to other states after camping.
