Stop Attacking Our Facilities, There Is No COVID-19 Palliatives In NYSC Camps — DG

Director-General of the National Youth Service Corps, Brig Gen
Shuaibu Ibrahim has appealed to hoodlums in search of COVID-19
palliatives to stop attacking NYSC orientation camps because the
camps are not warehousing palliatives.

Some hoodlums, who last week hijacked the #ENDSARS protests on
Tuesday, broke into the NYSC orientation camp in Kubwa, Abuja in
search of COVID-19 palliatives.

But the DG, in a statement issued by the Director of Press and
Public Relations of the NYSC, Mrs. Adenike Adeyemi, maintained the
orientation camps are not warehousing any Covid-19 palliatives.

“The spate of attacks on NYSC formations in search of
palliatives, particularly the Orientation camps have become very
worrisome.

“Management wishes to restate that there are no palliatives in
any of the 37 NYSC camps nationwide.

“It is imperative to note the National Youth Service Corps is a
national institution saddled with the core mandate of promoting
national unity and integration, as well as youth development and
empowerment. The mandate does not include warehousing and
distribution of palliatives.

“The Director-General National Youth Service Corps, Brigadier
General Shuaibu Ibrahim is making an earnest appeal for the
cessation of further attacks on facilities of the Institution,” the
statement said.
