The administrator of Rivers state, Retd Vice Admiral Ibok-Ete Ekwe Ibas, has urged Nigerian youth to embody exemplary conduct, dedication, and commitment to national development.
He gave the charge Sunday at the NYSC Permanent Orientation Camp, Nonwa-Gbam, Tai LGA, while presiding over the swearing-in of 2025 Batch A Stream I corps members deployed to Rivers state.
Represented by the Secretary to the State Government, Prof. Ibibia Lucky Worika, the administrator hailed the NYSC scheme as a critical driver of nation-building, praising its managers for modernising operations to meet 21st-century demands.
He tasked the corps members with repaying Nigeria’s trust and urging them to steer the nation towards honour, dignity, and prosperity as the next generation of leaders.
