ADO EKITI—DIRECTOR General, DG, of the National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, Brig-Gen. Bamidele Olawumi, has advised corps members to refrain from anything that can make them subject of attack by anyone while assisting the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, during elections.
The DG who spoke during an official visit to Ise-Orun-Emure Orientation camp of the NYSC yesterday, equally urged the people particularly politicians to talk to their supporters to stop harassing or molesting the corp members deployed to INEC on official national assignments.
Apparently referring to the June 21 Ekiti gubernatorial election, he noted that corps members were neither politician nor INEC staff, declaring that the organisation would not tolerate a situation where corps members were punished for the offence they did not commit
