The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has deployed 1,600 corps members to Bauchi State for the 2025 Batch ‘A’ Stream 1 service year, with an assurance that they will make meaningful contributions to their host communities.
The Director General of NYSC, Brigadier General Olakunle Nafiu, gave the assurance during the official closing ceremony of the orientation course held in Bauchi on Tuesday. He was represented at the event by the Bauchi State NYSC Coordinator, Rifkatu Yakubu.
Brig. Gen. Nafiu praised the corps members for their conduct during the three-week orientation, commending their patriotism, discipline, and commitment.
“By your show of maturity, patriotism, loyalty, commitment, discipline and tolerance, I am convinced that our three-week stay at camp has not been in vain and that you will have a maximum impact on your host communities during the service year,” he stated.
As the corps members prepare to begin their primary assignments, the NYSC DG urged them to remain diligent, obedient, and adaptable.
“I enjoin you to settle down quickly in your places of primary assignment and adapt to the ways of life in your host communities,” he advised.
