National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) Director-General, Brigadier General YD Ahmed, has issued a directive prohibiting Corps members from traveling at night due to escalating security threats.
Brigadier General Ahmed emphasised that night traveling poses significant risks to corps members’ lives, adding that if there is need for a compulsory journey, such Corps members should terminate the trip by 6:00 pm and continue the following day.
The NYSC DG gave the warning on Friday while addressing the 2024 Batch ‘B’ Stream Two Corps members and Camp Officials at the NYSC FCT Orientation Camp in Kubwa, Abuja.
“While traveling and once it is 6:00 pm, anywhere you find yourselves, look for a safe place like a military barrack, police station, or any Corps Lodge and pass the night to continue your journey the following day.
“I advise you to remain disciplined throughout the service year. Be security conscious in your environments and ensure you adhere strictly to NYSC Byelaws,” he said.
