Corps members have been charged to be guided by the motto and objectives of the Scheme during their service years in order to contribute positively to national development.
Bauchi state coordinator of the Scheme, Mr.
Afolayan James, gave the charge yesterday during the closing ceremony of the 2018 Batch B, Stream II joint orientation course for corps members deployed to Bauchi and Gombe states at the permanent orientation camp, Wailo, Bauchi state.
James, who noted that the youth in the three weeks’ orientation exercise underwent training in leadership techniques, drills, skills acquisition and entrepreneurship development, urged them to make good use of the knowledge acquired to bring development to their host communities.
“Also ensure that you respect the customs, traditions and general ways of life of your host communities so that you can genuinely identify with them and contribute to their development,” he said.
Also speaking, Bauchi state Governor Mohammed Abubakar, represented by his deputy, Audu Sule Katagum, enjoined the corps members to join hands with the government in rendering efficient services in areas of health care, education, social and infrastructure development.
“We will spare no effort in ensuring that your expertise, competence and creative minds are fully explored and redirected towards making our states the pride of the nation.
Furthermore, I urge you to pursue with more vigor the post camp training component of the skills acquisition programme that you started during the orientation course,” he said.
