The Anambra State Coordinator of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Kehinde Aremu, has said the temporary orientation camp in the state was becoming unconducive for corps members. He said the absence of power and water supply as well as decent accommodation continued to constitute serious challenges to the smooth running of the camp.
Aremu spoke on Thursday during the swearing-in ceremony of this year’s Batch “B” Stream II corps members at Umunya NYSC temporary orientation camp.
The state coordinator said the situation was worsened by the current construction work by the owners of the property as most camp activities were confined to small spaces.

“As you can see, today’s parade did not take place at the usual parade ground due to the ongoing construction work at the camp.
“The same is applicable to lectures and morning devotions. We’ve now been boxed to a corner. It’s really inconveniencing,” he said. Governor Willie Obiano urged the NYSC to be patient with his administration to fix the facilities.
The governor assured them that the permanent camp would be completed before the end of the year.
