“Avoid Night Traveling Because of Its Dangers” – NYSC DG Cautions Corps Members

The Director-General of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Brigadier General Yusha’u Dogara Ahmed, has once again urged corps members to prioritize their safety while serving the nation.
He issued a strong warning against taking risks when traveling, particularly by boarding vehicles from random roadside spots.
During his visit to the Anambra State Orientation Camp in Mbaukwu and the Ebonyi State Orientation Camp in Afikpo on Friday, Brigadier General Ahmed emphasized the importance of caution and vigilance.
He advised corps members to avoid traveling at night due to the heightened dangers associated with it, such as road accidents, crime, and other unforeseen risks.
Instead, he encouraged them to always board vehicles from designated motor parks, where transportation is more organized and secure.
“Traveling at night poses serious risks,” he cautioned.
“For your safety, always use approved motor parks and avoid boarding vehicles by the roadside.”
Brigadier General Ahmed also underscored the importance of integrating into the host communities where corps members are posted.
He encouraged them to learn about the culture, traditions, and values of these communities.
By doing so, they can build trust and foster mutual understanding with local residents.
He urged corps members to initiate community development projects that address the needs of their host communities and leave a lasting, positive impact.
The NYSC, established in 1973, plays a critical role in promoting national unity and development.
The service year is designed to give Nigerian graduates the opportunity to contribute to societal growth while developing essential life and leadership skills.
In line with this mission, Brigadier General Ahmed reminded corps members of the potential for meaningful relationships during their service year.
He encouraged them to form genuine friendships and professional connections that could benefit them long after the service year concludes.
“Your service year is not just about fulfilling a requirement; it’s an opportunity to plan for your future,” he added.
“The bonds you form and the lessons you learn now can shape your life in significant ways.”

Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi Allegedly in Talks to Join Social Democratic Party

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and ex-Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate Peter Obi are reportedly in talks to join the Social Democratic Party (SDP), according to Adewole Adebayo, the SDP’s presidential candidate in the 2023 elections.
Adebayo revealed this during an interview on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics, where he shared that discussions are ongoing through close associates of both Atiku and Obi. He mentioned that the SDP is open to welcoming them into the fold.
He added that the party had recently admitted a former governor from Kaduna State, who is also a key member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), signaling a shift in the political landscape. Adebayo emphasized that the SDP is experiencing growth as more individuals join, but there is a need for a cultural shift in politics, particularly regarding internal rules and procedures.
When asked directly about Obi’s potential move to the SDP, Adebayo confirmed that while talks are taking place, nothing is official until a formal announcement is made. He mentioned that he had received updates from party officials, including the Financial Secretary, about the ongoing discussions.
Adebayo also stressed that the SDP would only accept politicians who align with the party’s values and adhere to its democratic processes. “If they are willing to follow our transparent and credible internal processes, we can work together to offer Nigerians a real alternative,” he added.
