Kaduna state chapter of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Monday said no corps member will be permitted to be posted as ad-hoc staff in the forth-coming general elections in some volatile local government areas of the state .

The state coordinator, Hajiya Walida Siddique, who stated this to news reporters in Kaduna, said corps members have not been deployed to Kajuru and Birnin Gwari local government areas of the state due to insecurity in the areas.

Adding that the NYSC is working with Department of State Security (DSS) to detect other areas considered volatile in the state.

“Most of our corps members are not from Kaduna and so, they don’t know the terrain much. What I’m saying in essence is that, they don’t know the terrain and when there is any unrest, they may decide to run and run into another problem,” she said.

The coordinator maintains that there is no compulsion to serve as electoral officers because it is voluntary.

“Those that are there in Birni Gwari are not even interested in participating in the election,” she said.

Recalled that  about 800 persons lost their lives while properties worth millions of Naira were destroyed in 2011 following elections violence in the state.
