The National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, Gombe State, on Thursday, said 21 corps members who absconded from their duty posts would be immobilized to repeat the service year.

The State NYSC Coordinator, Mrs Chinwe Nwachuku, disclosed this in Gombe, during the Passing-Out Parade of the 2024 Batch “A” Stream 1, corps members.

Nwachuku explained that the concerned corps members, absconded for more than three months and the punishment was for them to repeat the service.

She added that 16 others were also sanctioned for having disciplinary cases such as travelling without permission, absenteeism from Community Development Service and other NYSC activities.

She said disciplinary measures for the various offenses committed by the concerned corps members were issued after facing the disciplinary committee.

While congratulating the outgoing corps members, the coordinator said no less than 1,268 NYSC members were passing out from the scheme in the state.

She commended the corps members’ efforts to contribute to the development of the state in all sectors of human endeavour.

”Posterity will forever remember you for contributing your quota to nation-building through positive impacts in your host communities in the education, health, agricultural sectors, and community development service projects.

”You have also learnt valuable lessons about the culture, customs, and traditions of the people of Gombe State.

”This, I hope will bring about the desired rebirth, national integration and unity, Nigeria craves for,” she said.

Nwachuku urged the outgoing corps members to be agents of positive change wherever they found themselves.

”Always remember the NYSC motto ‘Service and Humility’ in whatever you decide to do in life,” she admonished.
