Miffed by recent abduction of corpers heading to Zamfara recently, veteran actress, Kate Henshaw, has stated in strong terms that the much-talked-about National Youth Service Corps {NYSC} should be canceled by federal government.
Kate hinged her submission on the fact the exercise has outlived its purpose, adding that it no longer guarantee the safety of corps members unlike in the past considering the high rate of insecurity in the country.
Taking her social media, she went down memory lane on how the mandatory service was filled with fun, and how students looked forward to exploring different parts of the country
“When I served in the North, it was a very memorable experience. Traveling from Bauchi by road to the airport was safe & then flying to Lagos just with my NYSC ID card, which also got me a rebate on my ticket.
”It’s time to SCRAP this idea since corpers can’t travel within this country without LET OR HINDRANCE!
”Stop putting the lives of young people at risk with moribund ideas.
”Security is a priority & needs to be sorted totally, not technically” she said
