Render Selfless Service, Governor Sani Tells Corps Members

Governor of Kaduna State, Uba Sani has urged corps members posted to the state to approach their service year with humility, empathy and integrity.

Sani made the call yesterday when he addressed the corps members at the commencement of the 2024 Batch ‘A’ Stream ‘ll’ orientation course in Kaduna.

Sani was represented by the state’s commissioner for human services and social development, Hajiya Rabi Salisu.

He said the NYSC members were not just representing themselves, but have to become an embodiment of the hopes and aspirations of millions of Nigerians for nation building.

He, therefore, said they must listen to the voices of the people they serve, respect their culture and collaborate with them so as to make it easy for their integration into the host communities.

Sani urged them to learn their host communities’ languages to enable them to communicate with them effectively.

He stressed that the corps members’ actions, no matter how small, have the power to spur meaningful transformation and leave lasting legacies.

The governor reaffirmed the unwavering support of the Kaduna State Government to NYSC and its noble objectives.

He also restated his administration’s commitment in creating an enabling environment for the corps members to thrive and excel in their service to the country.

Earlier, the state coordinator of NYSC, Mr Hassan Taura, reminded the corps members that the orientation course was the first cardinal programme of the NYSC which prepares them for the rest of their service year and the life after service.

He urged them to avail themselves and remain committed to all the camp activities throughout the orientation course. (NAN)
