The incident reportedly happened at about 2 am along Abaji /Kwali expressway.
While confirming this, the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) in a statement by its spokesperson, Mrs Adenike Adeyemi described the incident as “devastating”.
It is with a deep sense of sorrow that the Director-General, management and the entire NYSC family commiserate with the families of five prospective corps members that lost their lives in a ghastly motor accident at about 2 am Wednesday, 28th July 2021, along Abaji/ Kwali Expressway.
“The Director-General and Management also condole with the governments and people of Akwa-Ibom and Imo States over the tragic incident that has left the Scheme devastated.
“Indeed, it has been a black Wednesday for the NYSC family. May God grant the families and loved ones the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss. May their souls rest in peace,” the statement reads.
