By Samuel Oyadongha,<\/strong> Yenagoa<\/p>\n

The bodies of two drowned members of the National Youth\u00a0 Service Corps\u00a0 have been recovered in the coastal enclave of Bayelsa East senatorial district after days of frantic search.<\/p>\n

It was gathered that the corpses were found floating along the Nembe creek in the Nembe local government area of the state.<\/p>\n

The deceased corps members were reportedly involved in a boat mishap while travelling from the coastal enclave of Nembe to Yenagoa, the state capital,\u00a0 Friday.<\/p>\n

The bodies it was learnt had been deposited at an undisclosed morgue in the state capital.<\/p>\n

According to a source, the tragic demise of the corps members could have been averted if only they had wore life jackets,\u00a0 like two of their colleagues in the ill-fated boat.<\/p>\n

The source added that when the\u00a0 boat capsized after sailing from Nembe the two corps members putting on life jackets manage to stay afloat until they were rescued while the deceased corps members\u00a0 got drowned before help could come their way.<\/p>\n

The recovery of their bodies it was reliably gathered was made possible with the assistance of\u00a0 local divers and youths from the fishing ports along the creek.<\/p>\n

Attempt to get the NYSC Public Relation Officer, Pius Iyamah\u2019s\u00a0 comments proved abortive as he did not pick\u00a0 his calls but a source who pleaded anonymity at the state office,\u00a0 confirmed the recovery of the bodies of the drowned corps members.<\/p>\n

The source, however, declined further comment on the identity of the victims.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
