The coordinator of the National Youth Service Corps in Rivers, Moses Oleghe, has asked the heads of the 2026 collaborating agencies for the Batch A Stream I orientation camp to show diligence.

He urged them to prioritise the welfare of corps members.

Mr Oleghe made the remark on Monday, during a meeting with the heads of collaborating agencies in Port Harcourt.

He said that NYSC top management was committed to the welfare and well-being of corps members.

Mr Oleghe advised officials to be deliberate in fulfilling their commitment through a professional relationship with corps members.

He also urged the agency heads to take good care of their health to be fit to effectively discharge their duties to corps members.

The state coordinator further urged heads of the collaborating agencies to uphold the virtues of integrity and honesty.

“Discharge your duties in truth and abide by the guiding principles of the orientation exercise,” he said.

In a response, the head of police-designate, ASP Patrick Samuel, pledged cooperation and commitment towards a successful camping exercise.

The meeting was attended by the camp director-designate, camp commandant-designate, other heads of collaborating agencies, and NYSC assistant directors.

The orientation exercise was scheduled to commence nationwide on Wednesday.
