Benue: NYSC warns corps members against night travel and local politics

Veronica Garba, NYSC coordinator in Benue State, urged corps members to avoid night travel and involvement in local politics to protect their safety during their service year. At the closing ceremony of the 21-day orientation course for the 2026 Batch C Stream I in Wannune, she told them to report suspicious activity, respect their host communities’ customs and avoid taking the law into their own hands. She encouraged them to undertake useful community development projects and continue practical training through the SAED programme. Garba commended Governor Hyacinth Iormem Alia and partner agencies for supporting the programme.
