Explosion: NYSC urges corps members to remain calm

The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has urged corps
members participating in the Presidential and National
Assembly elections in Enugu State to remain calm as their
safety had been guaranteed.
The Director of Corps Mobilisation, Mr Anthony Ani, made the
call in Enugu on Saturday in an interview with the newsmen
while reacting to the car bomb blast in the state capital.
Ani said that security agents had beefed up security in and
around the state to forestall further incidents. “I am urging
corps members in the state to be calm and careful as security
agents have assured us of your safety. “Do not be
discouraged. We are monitoring the situation and everything is
on course. I am impressed with the performance of corps
members in the election.’’
Ani, who is in Enugu to monitor the elections, expressed
satisfaction with the peaceful conduct in the state in spite of
the bomb blast. The director, however, decried poor
performance of the card readers and urged INEC to improve
on it.
