More corps members redeploy from the north

The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has entered the final stages of the mass redeployment of corps members posted to some crises-prone states in the northern part of the country.
The exercise, which commenced last week, is scheduled to end this week. Thousands of the corps members have continued to throng the NYSC permanent orientation camp in Kubwa, Abuja, where the exercise is taking place.
Chidiebere Osai, one of the corps members posted to Kebbi, however, cited health reasons as his reason for seeking redeployment; regardless of the fact that some locals in Birin-Kebbi threatened a group of them for drinking at a bar.
“It was more like just a warning; it won’t take us anything to heed it, and we’ll only be there for a year, not even a year but 10 months,” he said. “I have applied during camp but my application was not granted and I need to move back to Enugu as my doctor resides there. I have nowhere to put up in Abuja so I slept in the park; if they don’t answer me today I will go back to the park to sleep.”
Another corps member Blessing Ugoji, who was redeployed from Taraba State to Ekiti State, said she was pleased to have been redeployed from the north as she can have a rest of mind while serving her nation.
