Support tangible projects by corps members-Ondo NYSC Coordinator
The Ondo State National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Coordinator, Mrs Victoria Ani appeals to the Nigeria Customs Service and the Nigeria Immigration Service to support tangible projects by corps members.
Ani made the appeal during her courtesy call on the two offices, on Wednesday in Akure.
She said that her visit was to familiarise herself with the commands and to seek improved relationships between NYSC and the two organisations.
According to her, NYSC remains the platform that is uniting every ethnic and tribe in Nigeria..
She added that she was aware of the existing cordial relationships between NYSC two offices as her mission was to improve and and sustain the relationships.
“Your office has been honouring invitations to our programmes and events but the Covid-19 has restricted all such.
“My prayers is that Coronavirus pandemic should pack its bags and go and never to come back again so that we can return to our usual ways of doing things.
“Nigerians are happy wherever they find themselves but these COVID-19 protocols have made things a new normal,” she said.
Ani noted that NYSC would continue to mould and shape the future of graduate youths, so that they would be able to make effective contributions to the nation’s development.
In response, the Comptroller of Immigration, Mrs Ibong Aideyan said that Immigration Service like NYSC was established to serve people and humanity.
Adeiyan disclosed that NYSC had always been outstanding in mentoring the graduate youths in the country.
The comptroller, while informing the NYSC coordinator the process of resuscitating the command’s clinic, requested the NYSC boss to avail her command the services of NYSC doctors and other paramedical personnel.
“We are neighbours and besides this, the Forum of Heads of Federal Government Establishments and Institutions in Nigeria, Ondo State Chapter has made us one indivisible entity” she said.
Also speaking when she hosted the State Coordinator in her office, Mrs Florence Inuk, the Customs Area Controller, Ondo/Ekiti Command, said that NYSC, as an institution had made her mark.
Inuk added that the mark was through purposeful deployment of corps members to all areas of national need.
Both the Customs Area Controller and Comptroller, Nigeria Immigration Service welcomed the State Coordinator to Ondo State and wished her a successful tenure in office.
