Leadership<\/a> (Abuja)<\/p>\n

11 May 2011<\/p>\n

\n

President Goodluck Jonathan yesterday in Abuja directed that each family of the 10 National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members killed in the post-election violence in the northern part of the country be paid N5 million.Jonathan gave the directive when he received a delegation of some of the deceased’s family members who were killed in Bauchi and Niger states.He also directed that one graduate each from the families of the deceased be given employment in the federal civil service.He said the success of the 2011 elections was due largely to the patriotism exhibited by members of the NYSC.<\/p>\n

He said: “We all share in your grief. This tragedy is even more sobering considering that they died carrying out a national assignment that has served to effectively consolidate our democratic process.<\/p>\n

“The success of the 2011 elections and the wide international acclaim which the exercise has received was due in large part to the uncommon patriotism and diligence exhibited by the members of the NYSC.<\/p>\n

“Your sons and daughters may be gone, but they have not died in vain. You can take some solace in the fact that they are today national heroes of whom every patriotic Nigerian is immensely proud.<\/p>\n

“Our administration holds them in the highest esteem and we’re determined to ensure that their names are permanently immortalised as an enduring source of inspiration to us all.<\/p>\n

“I appreciate the fact that no amount of recognition can adequately compensate for the deep void that their passing has created for individual families.”<\/p>\n
