The Ogun State Coordinator of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Mrs. Olayinka Nasamu, has commended the Executive Chairman of Ijebu-Ode Local Government, Hon. Damilare Sikiru Alebiosu, for his unwavering commitment and consistent support for the Scheme.

Mrs. Nasamu gave the commendation during a courtesy visit to the chairman at his office in Ijebu-Ode, as part of her stakeholder engagement efforts ahead of the 2025 Batch A Stream One Orientation Course, in line with the directive of the NYSC Director General.

Speaking on behalf of NYSC management, she expressed deep appreciation for the chairman’s dedication to the welfare of Corps Members. 

Mrs Nasamu noted his remarkable contributions, highlighting that he was the only council chairman who provided transportation for Corps Members posted to Ijebu-Ode following the last Orientation Course and also demonstrated strong support by attending the Cultural Carnival on short notice.

“We sincerely appreciate your generosity and passion. Your selfless support continues to make a meaningful impact on the lives of our Corps Members,” she stated.

The Coordinator also took the opportunity to introduce the new NYSC Director General, Brigadier General Olakunle Oluseye Nafiu, and informed the chairman of the scheduled date for the commencement of the next Orientation exercise. 

She appealed for continued collaboration to ensure a smooth and successful course.

In his response, Hon. Alebiosu warmly welcomed the NYSC team and reaffirmed his commitment to the Scheme. 

He pledged to offer even greater support, including donating essential items to the Orientation Camp and personally attending selected Camp activities.

The visit also featured the presentation of waste bins by Corps Members to the Ijebu-Ode Local Government Secretariat as part of their Community Development Service (CDS), aimed at promoting environmental cleanliness and hygiene.

The visit reaffirmed the strong partnership between NYSC Ogun State and its key stakeholders in ensuring the safety, well-being, and productivity of Corps Members across the state.
