Kogi State Governor, Alhaji Ahmed Usman Ododo, has assured members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC ) deployed to the state of his administration’s continued support for their welfare and safety.
The Governor gave the assurance on Wednesday during a brief stopover at the NYSC Orientation Camp in Asaya, Ijumu Local Government Area.
Governor Ododo charged them to uphold the ideals of the NYSC scheme by promoting unity, discipline and hard work.
Emphasising the need to be part of the drive to develop the state, the Governor urged them to take advantage of the service year to contribute positively to the development of Kogi State and the nation.
“You are the future of Nigeria. Take your duties seriously, be patriotic, and leave a lasting impact on your host communities. Kogi State is peaceful, and we will continue to support and protect you throughout your stay,” he added.
Mr. Femi Osungbohun, the Kogi State NYSC Coordinator, thanked the governor for the surprise visit and for his support for the NYSC in the state, saying the gesture was timely and encouraging as it reflected the administration’s genuine interest in the well-being of Nigerian youths.
On behalf of corpsbers serving in the state, the SC assured the governor of their commitment to serve with dedication and contribute meaningfully to the development of Kogi State
