NYSC Member Allegedly Assaulted by Teachers in Kwara School Over Greeting Etiquette

Date: 2024-11-30

A female National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) member serving in Kwara State was reportedly assaulted by teachers at Government Day Junior Secondary School, Kulende, Ilorin, on Thursday.

Sources revealed that the corps member, whose identity is being withheld, visited the school to collect her clearance letter but was accused of failing to greet the teachers properly.

Eyewitnesses claimed that one of the teachers tore her NYSC white T-shirt during the altercation, while another teacher allegedly slapped her. The incident has drawn widespread condemnation and calls for an investigation.

The incident, which had sparked public outrage in the metropolis, saw people calling for investigation and accountability, just as it raised concerns about respect, professionalism and abuse of power within educational institutions.

The head of Information and Public Relations of the NYSC in Kwara state, Morakinyo Oladipo, who confirmed the incident, said that the scheme would seek redress on the attack against the corps member, adding that the state government has been briefed on the matter through the state ministry of Youth, the supervising ministry.

The NYSC spokesperson said that in the interim, the corps member would be reposted out of that vicinity, “at least to calm her down to help her overcome the trauma.

“It's a fact. The story is true and we're writing a rejoinder. All necessary steps have been taken to seek redress for the assaulted corps member.

“The NYSC has formally informed the state government through the honourable commissioner, the state ministry of Youth, our supervisory ministry and the state government has swung into action immediately since the news broke out.

“Presently, we're in the orientation camp. All the necessary steps to seek redress for the corps member are being taken. The NYSC expresses its displeasure concerning the matter.”

On likely punishment to be done to the teachers, he said that the law will take its proper course. “We're expecting investigation and proper action to be taken against the people that abused the corps member. The corps member that is on national assignment. Necessary steps will be taken to the extent that the law allows against such people that abused the female corps member.”
