President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has honored Anambra-born Samuel Chukwudi Ezeanolue with the prestigious President's NYSC Honors Award. He was among the 200 Ex-Corp members honoured recently in Abuja for their exceptional contributions during their service year.

Ezeanolue, a corps member who served in Kogi State, was recognized for his outstanding contributions to his host community, Oboroke-Ihima.

During his service year in 2020, Ezeanolue successfully executed over 15 different Personal Community Development Service (CDS) projects, including donating bookshelves, tables, and chairs to Joyous Academy Secondary School, conducting seminars on HIV/AIDS sensitization, and establishing digital press clubs and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) clubs in secondary schools.

According to Ezeanolue, these efforts earned him recognition from government officials, traditional rulers, and private individuals.

He was equally awarded a prestigious award for meritorious service and conferred with honorary citizenship of Okehi Local Government Area. He was also named the Overall Best Corps Member in Kogi for 2021 Service Year.

The Anambra State Born prodigy also received a chieftaincy title of Ozi Oyiza of Ihima (Blessed Son of Ihima).


As part of the honors, President Tinubu has announced their immediate employment into the Federal Civil Service, scholarship up to Doctorate Degree in any Federal University in Nigeria, and a cash prize of NGN250,000 to all the 200 ex-corp members who served from 2020-2023.

The President was represented at the occasion by Nkeiruka Onyejeocha, Minister of State, Labour and Employment.

Speaking at the occasion the minister congratulated the ex-corp members and hinted that the process of actualizing the President's promises has commenced and were being handled by NYSC.

In his reaction, Ezeanolue said "I see this award not just as a recognition of patriotism and service to humanity, but as a renewed call to action.

“It’s a push to do more, and I am committed to upholding the same mindset and diligence in making a difference; by impacting my immediate environment and contributing to national development to the best of my ability.”

The Director-General of the National Youth Service Corps(NYSC), Brigadier-General Olakunle Oluseye Nafiu was among the top government functionaries that attended the event

Samuel Ezeanolue was born into the family of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Ezeanolue of Oko Community, Orumba North Local Government Area of Anambra State.

What sort of silly tribalistic rhetoric is this? Why fan the embers of bigotry and tribalism?

Yet, they will come and say Tinubu hates igbo people..

Only God will save these people from tribalism and hypocrisy...

Good. Let's reward the behaviours we want with recognition and cash.

Keep it up presido

Igbo people development mentality

As the Best Corper in Kano state way back 2022,dem tell me say I should get ready to be honoured at the Federal Level considering the massive projects I carried out, yet no one contacted me. Later I come dey hear say dem do name swap. No wahala. I still dey.

You people and chest beating and inferiority complex is like 5&6&7.

Did you read that they were 200 corp members that were honoured?

Or the whole 200 are Igbos?

😂😂😂 He is a good boy

The news headline should just be that Tinubu honors all outstanding past corpers......

Congrats to all the 200 ex corpers that did well, as all tribes are involved....
