The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) in Sokoto State has ordered six corps members to repeat their service for absconding from their places of primary assignment for three months.
In an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Sokoto on Thursday, the NYSC State Director, Mr Philip Enaberue, said the six offenders were part of the 1,724 Batch B Stream 1 corps members.
Enaberue said that in addition to the six, who are to repeat their services, three others had their services extended by one week to four months for different infractions. “Extension occurs when a corps member did not attend his place of primary assignment regularly or has not been signing monthly clearance,” he said.
