The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has announced and commiserated with family of the demised five prospective corps members that were involved in a ghastly motor accident on Wednesday at 2am, along Abaji/Kwari Road.

This was made known via the Official Facebook of the Scheme. While condoling with Imo and Akwa Ibom State Governments, the scheme described the incident as tragic and devastating.

The post reads:

“It is with deep sense of sorrow that the Director-General, Management and the entire NYSC Family commiserate with the families of five Prospective Corps Members that lost their lives in a ghastly motor accident at about 2am today, Wednesday, 28th July, 2021, along Abaji/ Kwali Expressway.

The Director-General and Management also condole with the Governments and people of Akwa-Ibom and Imo States over the tragic incident that has left the Scheme devastated.

Indeed, it has been a black Wednesday for the NYSC Family.
