Mrs. Ekwu explained that Ihiala Local Government Area is made up of ten communities and described the area as peaceful, hospitable, and accommodating. According to her, the people of the area see corps members as relatives, friends, and siblings, thereby creating a friendly atmosphere for them to thrive during their service year.

The Information and Culture Head also advised the corps members to desist from acts capable of tarnishing the image of their various states and the NYSC scheme, including vandalism, destruction of lives and property, armed robbery, drug abuse and trafficking, as well as other social vices.


Mrs. Ekwu further charged the corps members to render selfless and dedicated service throughout their service year while demonstrating competence, commitment, and professionalism in their various places of primary assignment.


She assured them that the local government administration would continue to support their welfare and provide the necessary assistance to ensure a successful and rewarding service year in Ihiala.
