“Don’t endanger your safety. Your movement outside the state must be approved by the state coordinator and do not go outside your place of abode to worship.
“Your parents are looking up to you to take care of them in their old age and we don’t want to lose any of you. Please let your colleagues know your movement,” the NYSC boss said.
