Corps members have been advised not to post details of their camp experiences on social media by Brigadier General Yusha’u Ahmed, the Director-General of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC).
Ahmed underlined that the three-week activity should only be used for personal enjoyment with the experiences recorded.
The DG gave this warning to the corps members of 2024 Batch A Stream 1 at the NYSC Ogun State Permanent Orientation Camp in Sagamu, according to a statement made public on Sunday.

In addition, he cautioned the corps members against making unneeded travel plans, particularly unapproved ones, emphasising how crucial it is to put their safety first.
Ahmed told the corps members to “don’t allow your service year to go idle without utilising it,” as he urged them to make the most of it. Not a single hour ought to be wasted. You have to keep doing things that will help you reach your objectives.
“You are not expected to post camp activities on social media, whatever is recorded should be for your personal consumption.
“You must also be wary of embarking on unnecessary and unauthorised journeys, take personal security seriously.”
In order to become wealth creators, Ahmed also urged corps members to participate in the NYSC Skills Acquisition and Entrepreneurship Development Programme.

The NYSC DG generously donated four cows and cash gifts to several categories of corps members.
Accompanying the DG were the Director of Special Duties, Mrs. Bona Fasakin, and the Director of the Press and Public Relations Unit, Mr. Edwin Megwa, among others.
