NYSC Osun State Coordinator, Ekene Ita Kubiangha, during the passing out parade for corps members who participated in the 2025 Batch ‘B’ Stream II service year.
Kubiangha, while addressing the corps members during the low-key Passing-Out Parade on Thursday, congratulated them on completing their national service.
He urged them to leverage the knowledge, skills and experiences acquired during their service year as they begin the next phase of their lives.
The NYSC coordinator particularly encouraged the corps members to build on the entrepreneurial skills acquired through the Skill Acquisition and Entrepreneurship Development, SAED, programme.
“Such skills were increasingly important in helping young Nigerians navigate the realities of the economy,” he said.
Kubiangha also charged the corps members to remain disciplined, responsible and committed to making meaningful contributions to society after completing their mandatory national service.
He said, “The end of the service year should mark the beginning of greater opportunities, responsibilities and service to humanity.”
As part of activities marking the passing-out parade, the coordinator embarked on a monitoring exercise to Boripe and Ifelodun Local Government Areas in the Ikirun Zone.
Kubiangha reiterated the need for them to sustain the positive values acquired during their service year and apply their experiences to their personal and professional development.
