A serving member of the National Youth Service Corps in Enugu state reportedly ran mad in New Haven on Sunday, April 29. It is unknown if the unidentified corps member was abusing drugs or has a history of mental illness.

As thousands of the 2017 batch ‘A’ corps members across the country wound up the one year mandatory service to the country, five died during the service year.

Coordinator of the scheme in Kaduna state, Dahunsi Mohammed, announced the deaths, at the Passing out Parade (PoP), yesterday.

The PoP is the last of the four cardinal points of the NYSC; orientation course, place of primary assignment, community development service (CDS) and the PoP.
