The National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, on Thursday, said that four corps members who absconded from their duty posts would repeat the service year.

The State NYSC Coordinator, Mrs Chinwe Nwachuku, said this in Gombe, during the Passing-Out Parade of 2023 Batch “C” Stream I corps members.

Nwachuku said that the service year of three others would be extended.

She said that no fewer than 1, 210 corps members comprising 662 male and 548 female passed out in Gombe State.

The coordinator said that the disciplinary measures for the various offences committed by the concerned corps members were issued after facing the Corps Disciplinary Committee.

Congratulating the outgoing corps members, she urged them to leverage the skills acquired during the service year to become self-reliant.
