Onyebuchi commiserated with the families of corps members that lost their lives in the course of national service and wished the out-going members best of luck.

In his farewell speech, the Enugu state NYSC coordinator Mr. Hillary Nasamu acknowledged the support of the state government and its people whom he said “provided conducive environment for corps members to accomplish their assignment”.

He thanked the state government for providing fund for the rehabilitation of the NYSC orientation camp.
