NYSC Corps Member Allegedly Assaulted by Teachers in Kwara State
A female National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) member serving in Kwara State was reportedly assaulted by teachers at Government Day Junior Secondary School, Kulende, Ilorin, for allegedly not greeting them properly.
The incident happened on Thursday, November 28, 2024, when the corps member visited the school to collect her clearance letter. According to eyewitnesses, a teacher attacked her, tearing her NYSC T-shirt, while another teacher allegedly slapped her during the confrontation.
Morakinyo Oladipo, the NYSC spokesperson in Kwara State, confirmed the incident. He assured that steps are being taken to seek justice for the corps member. The state government, through the Ministry of Youth, has been informed and is already involved in addressing the matter.
“The NYSC expresses its displeasure regarding the incident,” Oladipo said. “The corps member will be reposted to a different location to help her recover from the trauma.”
He added that investigations are ongoing and emphasized that legal action will be taken against the teachers involved. “The law will take its proper course against those who abused the corps member,” he stated.
The NYSC reaffirmed its commitment to protecting corps members and ensuring their safety while on national service.
