NYSC confirms killing of a corps member during Rivers state rerun election

The National Youth Service Corps has announced the death of a corps member, Okonta Samuel, (pictured above) with call-up number RV/15B/5539, during the re-run elections in Rivers State which held over the weekend.‎ A statement by the management of NYSC, says that Samuel, who served at GCSS Ukpeliede, was shot dead by unknown gunmen in Ahoada West Local Government Area on Saturday March 19th. The statement reads in part ;


“The murder of this patriotic young man, who was an orphan, is primitive, barbaric, and ungodly; and should be strongly condemned by all well-meaning Nigerians. The NYSC shall work with relevant agencies to ensure that the perpetrators of this heinous act are fished out and made to face the full wrath of the law. We consider Okonta Samuel’s death as a great loss, not only to his immediate family, but also to all of us in the NYSC family and the entire nation".

Lord please protect both the serving Corp members and prospective Corp members from untimely death.


That's how they will hijack someone from his or her state to be killed in another state.

Oh Jesus, an orphan for that matter. After going through Stress of acquiring education, some blood thirsty politicians killed him. May his killers and their sponsors not know peace. And may God visit them with his anger. RIP copper.

YODUS said...

Stupidity is when a fool kills for a politician who cares less about their well being rather than use them as thugs during political activities. Madness is when a politician makes an election a do or die affair because of perishable gains they get from it. Until we learn to make political positions less attractive in this country, we shall continue to experience this inhumanly acts. Rest on Okonta, may God in His mightiness speedily punish those who cut your life short untimely. They shall know no rest.

So sad.in my opinion they shldnt conduct any more elections.Buhari shld leave those slots vacant haba.A life is worth more than all those positions and the rest that they re fighting for

Naymar... said...

Local education council of akwa ibom uyo state capital, are maliciously criminals these group of people. Diverts corp members money for just no reason,the government of akwa ibom state releases money for corp members as their state allowances, each corp members are to b paid ten thousand each, but these group of people will choose to deduct 200 naira each from every corp members money without any reason and if a corp member is not available to collect his or her money after two days these group of people will personalize your money or convert it to them selfs and when you come to claim your money, these people will tell you that it is unclaimed allowance and have been returned to the state government, that you can not get the money any more not even minding the state or condition a corp member is... after all your effort teaching and shouting in class some group of unscrupulous element will decide to suppress some bodies money just for selfish interest...

SongsOfSUSSAN said...

My God! Let us be truthful to ourselves, knowing that Rivers CANNOT be an APC state, and having concluded elections in 2015, was there any need for an election re-run? Our leaders are wicked, they only think of themselves and their family members.

Nigerian youths shall we allow this to continue??????????

It's so sad for Amaechi and his cohorts to think that their ambition is worth anybody's blood. Their generation will somewhere somehow pay for this

And the commisioner of police told Nigeria that is only four death. I don't know why the police authorities should be telling lies? Let the truth be told Ameachi should leave Rivers State only and let's the Governor work.

Oya Buhari, Ameachi and Dakuku make una begin eat d corpes. Ameachi d spirit and blood of dis innocent guy will hurt and chase u till death. Buhari and co used u to kill ur pipo. Peace would be far from u. D pipo of Rivers state have rejected u long time ago. Rivers State is PDP. 98% of the pipo even strangers in d land said no to ur chain since 2015. Buhari can't kill all of us in Rivers states he should know that.

Frankly speaking, nysc is actually against it, they inform everyone about its danger, most corpers do it because of the money, he knew the danger and still went on with it, you can't blame nysc for this. Rip to the guy

Anonymous said...

May ur innocent soul rest in peace mr Okonta. But for those of you scrutinizing, asking him why he embak on such job, I dnt blame you guys, when you have the hand that feeds u, Y won't you mis talk?, ppl hustle to train themselves in skoool, in this same fucking refuse dump country(Zoo), the young man was a hustler that probably trained him self, do you expect him to fold his hands and die of hunger?, I bet you, if that happens, you will still say more. May God have mercy on u all condemning and asking him why taking such a job

I condemn the killing of the corps member in its entirety. It is barbaric . The culprits should be brought to book.

Please Linda ikeji tell all the state coordinators not to engage any CORPER for those stupid election. Nigerian doesn't worth dying for. A dead CORPER will just be remember for few minutes that's all. I have done this before and over my dead body to suffer for Nigeria. May his soul rip.
