A total of One thousand, three hundred and eight (1,308) members from the 2024 Batch B Stream One officially concluded their service year on Tuesday in a low-key Passing Out ceremony across Anambra State.
Anambra State NYSC Coordinator, Mrs. Pauline Ojisua in her goodwill message, charged the Corps members to leverage the training received through the NYSC Skills Acquisition and Entrepreneurship Development (SAED) program.
“Utilize the training acquired from NYSC SAED to create employment for yourselves and contribute to national growth,” Mrs. Ojisua urged the departing youth.
Representing the Chairman of Awka South LGA, the Deputy Chairman, Hon. Paul Ifeme, echoed the call for national dedication. He advised the Corps members to remain patriotic citizens, shun criminal activities and vices, and consistently uphold the values of good ambassadorship.
“Corps members should avoid crimes and vices, and remain good ambassadors,” Hon. Ifeme stated.
Reinforcing the message of self-sufficiency, Hon. Kingsley Ikebudu, the Special Assistant to the Awka South LGA Chairman, also encouraged the Corps members to focus on creating jobs using their acquired skills rather than solely seeking traditional white-collar employment..
Angel Network News (ANN) reports that the Passing Out ceremony held in all 21 Local Government Areas of Anambra State.
The core activity during the Awka South ceremony, mirrored across the state, was the issuance of Certificates of National Service to deserving Corps members who successfully completed their service year.
A notable highlight of the Awka South event was the presentation of a Commendation Letter to Corps Member Lawal Toafeek Ayodeji (State Code: AN/24B/1076), recognizing his outstanding performance and contributions during the service year.
The ceremony marks the formal transition of these 1,308 young Nigerians from national service into the next phase of their careers, carrying with them the expectations of utilizing their NYSC experiences and skills for personal advancement and national development.
