 As the National Youth Service Corps NYSE commemorates 50 years of promoting peace, national unity and integration of youth, the Kaduna State Coordinator Hazen Tara has commended the military and other security operators for securing corps members deployed to the state to serve their Fatherland. Plus, CV News correspondent Habila Darifai filed in this report. Hundreds of corps members surveyed in the state, NYSE staff and management and back on a road walk to join other colleagues to mark the 50th anniversary of the scheme in Kaduna State, not West Nigeria. The state coordinator says the NYSE scheme has helped in contributing to growth and development of the country by transforming youths to become good ambassadors. Essence of today's program and exercise is to commemorate the existence of NYSE scheme at 50. The scheme during the last 50 years has made a lot of impact in the area of education, healthcare and of course a lot of national assignments. Corps members participated fully in elections, duty during the last, right from 2011 to date. This scheme is partnering with INEC. In fact right from 2012, we have been partnering or participating, our corps members have been participating in election duty. So right from 2011 till date, elections in Nigeria are very cognized and respected because of participation of corps members. And of course if you go to so many rural schools, you only see corps members as teachers. So the scheme has really made a lot of impact and of course we will continue to do our best in terms in the area of national development. Hassan Zaira appeals to the youths to be united and patriotic for the common good of the nation and assist from anything that will challenge the image of the scheme. So corps members in Karnassida are very safe, right from the orientation course to the various places of primary assembly. We don't jeopardize the security of our corps members. Military, the police, the civil defense and of course the department of state service. We are working hand in hand with them. As I'm talking to you, we just left the orientation camp. They are there protecting our corps members on camp and of course even after the orientation, like I said, we deploy them to different communities. Those communities, we ensure we send them to communities that are very, very safe, that are very, very safe. Any community that has a security challenge, we don't post our corps members. And of course we will continue to ensure our security forces protect our corps members day and night. The NYST assures that it will continue to contribute positively to nation building and protecting the youth corps members deployed to the state for national assignment.
