Brig Gen Shuaibu Ibrahim, the Director-General of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has said the agency will not pay any ransom for the release of any corps member who is abducted.
Ibrahim advised corps members to be security conscious, adding that they should cultivate the habit of going to bed at 6pm.

He said this on Sunday when he made an unannounced visit to the NYSC orientation camp in Katsina.
Ibrahim’s visit will be the second to the camp following the death of three corps members serving in the state in a road crash.
“The NYSC will never pay ransom if any corps member is kidnapped. Corps members are therefore advised to secure themselves as much as possible to avoid being kidnapped,” Ibrahim was quoted as saying in a statement by spokesman for the NYSC in Katsina State.
He also warned them to always obtain permission before travelling out of their areas.
