It was a moment of joy, satisfaction and reminiscence of fond memories for the outgoing NYSC Director of Information and Public Relations, Mr Eddy Megwa when he lauded members of the Press for prompt reportage of the Scheme’s activities.

During his valedictory session with members of the fourth estate of the realm, he tasked them to uphold the professional ethics of journalism as they continue to report NYSC programmes.

He enjoined them to make clarifications from the Scheme whenever the need arises, instead of rushing to press to publish incorrect and damaging stories about the Scheme

He added that their support contributed in no small measure to his success as the 28th image maker of the Scheme.

The outgoing Director also enjoined the youth corespondents to accord more support to his successor in order to succeed in the discharge of the statutory responsibilities as the next Director of Information and Public Relations of NYSC.

Mr Megwa is billed to meritoriously exit the public service on Sunday August 25, 2024 on the attainment of the mandatory retirement age of sixty years for public servants.
