No fewer than 20 Corps members in the 2017 NYSC Batch B, Stream 11, in Nasarawa State, bagged various extensions of service period for different misconducts during the service year.
The NYSC Coordinator in the state, Mrs Zainab Isah, made this known to newsmen on Thursday after supervising a low key Passing out Parade (POP) for the corps members in Lafia Local Government Area.
Isah said that the affected corps members had their service year extended by various periods because they committed different offences and had to be punished based on the gravity of their offence and according to NYSC bye-laws.
“We have 20 corps members that have disciplinary cases. Some of them missed one allowance or the other because they were not around. Either they travelled without permission or they travelled with permission but extended their leave without informing NYSC.
“So those allowances they missed are the ones that will be given to them during their extension of service.
“Some got two weeks extension, some three weeks while others got longer extensions. It depends on the misconduct and what the NYSC bye-laws stipulated as punishment,” she said.
Isah explained that the decision to extend the service year of the erring corps members was the recommendation of the state NYSC Disciplinary Committee which according to her, will serve as a deterrent to others.
“We have a committee on Corps discipline, comprising of all assistant directors and all heads of branches in the secretariat. The state coordinator is not a member.
