She noted that the service had approved a course on corps welfare which was currently going on in Abuja, all in a bid to enhance the welfare and well-being of corps members.

The coordinator urged prospective corps members to adhere to the instructions contained in their call up letters for a smooth orientation course.

“I want to appeal to the people of Taraba to accord the prospective corps members a warm reception.

“Most of them would be coming to Taraba for the first time and I urge the people of the state, especially road transport workers, to treat corps members with love as they arrived,” she appealed.
