The Director General of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Brigadier General YD Ahmed has appealed for more security for Corps Members that would serve as electoral officers during the gubernatorial and House of Assembly elections holding on Saturday.
He made the plea today during his separate advocacy visits to the Bauchi State Director, Department of State Services, Malam Hussein Bukani Abdullahi, Brigade Commander, 33 Artillery Brigade Bauchi, Brigadier General E Egbe, Bauchi State Commandant, Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, Amen Edo James and the Commissioner of Police, Aminu Alhassan in their offices.
The Director-General in a statement made available to Daily Independent by Eddy Megwa, Director, Press and Public Relations described the Corps Members as neutral participants in the electoral process.
He stated that they have decided to heed the clarion call of contributing their quota to national development and thus deserve maximum security from every stakeholder.
“I am appealing for maximum security for our Corps Members during and after the Governorship/State House of Assembly elections even up till their Corps Lodges,” General Ahmed said.
The DG had earlier thanked the security agencies for their cordial relationship and assistance for the NYSC Bauchi State Secretariat, especially during Orientation Course periods.
The Commander, 33 Artillery Brigade, Bauchi, Brigadier General E Egbe said arrangements have been made to ensure that all Corps Members are fully protected from danger.
He lauded General YD Ahmed for his visit and also for his five-point policy thrust which involves the security and welfare of Corps Members.
Also, the Bauchi State Director, Department of State Services, Malam Hussein Bukani Abdullahi said there is a stronger synergy between all the security agencies in the State, adding that all hands are on deck to provide stronger security for all Corps Members in the State up till post-election period.
