REPORTER: ROSEMARY ELEE
About Nine hundred and thirty- three (933) Corps Members of the 2025 Batch ‘B’ Stream One have been formally discharged from the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) after successfully completing the one-year mandatory national service in Anambra State.
The issuance of Certificates of National Service (CNS) took place simultaneously across the 21 Local Government Areas of the state.
At the ceremony held at the Ihiala Local Government Council Area, the Anambra State Coordinator of the NYSC, Mrs Pauline Ojisua, congratulated the outgoing corps members on the successful completion of their service year and charged them to remain worthy ambassadors of the NYSC scheme and the country.
She urged them to embrace self-reliance by putting into practice the entrepreneurial and vocational skills acquired during the Skills Acquisition and Entrepreneurship Development (SAED) programme, rather than waiting endlessly for white-collar jobs.
Mrs Ojisua encouraged the corps members to remain productive by engaging in meaningful ventures capable of creating sustainable livelihoods and contributing to national development.
Correspondent Rosemary Elee reports that nine corps members who absconded from service would repeat the entire service year in line with the provisions of the NYSC Bye-Laws while
two Corps Members had their service years extended on disciplinary grounds.
Meanwhile five corps members were retained by their employers due to their outstanding performance.
