Members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) who completed their mandatory one year service to the nation, on Thursday, have been advised not to wear the NYSC uniform while travelling back home.
This advice was given at the passing-out parade of over 3,000 batch A corps members that served in Ogun State.
Addressing the corps members, the South-West coordinator II, Osogbo, Osun State, Mrs Abosede Aderibigbe, decried the spate of kidnapping in the country, submitting that corps members had also become the target of the kidnappers.
''For those of you, who are travelling today, please ensure that you don't travel in the night. If you are travelling, as soon as you get your certificate, please go now or wait till tomorrow morning because of security reasons.
''I am advised to inform you that for those of you travelling, after collecting your discharge certificate, I will advise you to pull of your uniform and you put it in your bags and dress in mufti as you travel," she said.
