According to reports, no fewer than twenty one Corps members from Batch ‘B’ Streams I and II serving in Kano state would repeat their service year due to various acts of indiscipline. State coordinator of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC)  Alhaji Ladan Baba, disclosed this on Thursday in an interview on the passing out of the Batch ‘B’ stream one corps members posted to the state. According to him, ''Eight out of the 21 corps members are from the Stream one, 13 of them are from the Stream 2 while 10 corps members would repeat few weeks or months. “On a sad note, we lost a male and a female corps members, Shuaibu Yahuza from Bauchi state and Happiness Emmanuel from Enugu state, both of the Stream 1.'' He explained that the affected corps members were punished for either absconding from their places of primary assignment or they were absent for more than three months without permission or any concrete reason. Ladan said that 2,574 corps members passed out from batch ‘B’ Stream 1, describing them as one of the best set they had in recent time. He added that 13 of the Stream 1 members have excelled and some of them would receive commendation certificates while others would receive the State’s Honours Award.
