Corps member slumps at Osun NYSC camp

A corps member on Monday collapsed at the National Youth Service Corps orientation camp in Osun State.

The corps member slumped on Monday when the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, was addressing corps members at the camp.

An NYSC official who checked on the corps member said she has left the clinic after receiving treatment.

While addressing the corps members, the Ooni of Ife said his daughter was also deployed to Abuja.

He said, “I made up my mind that I would be an entrepreneur. I was selling rice and sugar.

“At the age of 19, I fathered a child, which made the matter more complicated. Life was very tough because I had to cater for my child; but that made me to work harder.

“Today, I am very proud to say that she is one of the present batch of corps members in Abuja now. That experience shaped by life and made me to keep striving.

“I started going to Benue to bring yam tubers, which I turned to yam powder. I want to encourage you today, whatever you are selling or doing, do it with zeal.

“I met Aliko Dangote and Dr. Deji Adeleke and other successful people right inside the market where I was selling foodstuff. I used my background to redefine the way I was selling the stuff.”
