He noted that this will take effect during its forthcoming 2021 Batch A Stream Two Orientation Course.
“As the welfare and safety of corps members and staff is part of the policy thrust of my administration, we shall continue to work closely with relevant shareholders to evolve strategies for the protection of all corps members and the entire corps community during the orientation course,” he added.

Following the alleged extrajudicial killings of young citizens of Imo State, the Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria, HURIWA, has written to the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Attahiru Ibrahim, threatening to drag him before the International Criminal Court, ICC in The Hague-Netherlands if the trend continues.
In a copy of the letter dated May 5 and made available to DAILY POST by its National Coordinator, Comrade Emmanuel Onwubiko on Wednesday, HURIWA alleged that the army chief had done nothing to stop the killings in the state.
HURIWA which cited several killings of innocent citizens in Imo by the Nigerian army, urged the COAS to arrest and prosecute soldiers involved in the incidents.
