The National Youth Service Corps Scheme is diminished by the death of any Corps Member, and therefore feels utterly devastated by the untimely demise of Okalanwon Ibrahim Olalekan OD/18C/1199, who hailed from Ogun State. He died under very tragic circumstance, on Saturday, 9th March, 2019.
Olalekan, a young man, burning with patriotic zest stood to be counted at the hour of national need by availing the Nation of his services as INEC ad-hoc staff, deployed to Arogbo Ward 2, Ese - Odo Local Government Area of Ondo State, his state of Service, for the State House of Assembly Election.
Regrettably, he had successfully concluded the national task before meeting his untimely death, arising from boat mishap on his way back to his place of abode.
Our thoughts are with his family, friends, and all who knew and loved him at this difficult time.
We implore the Almighty Father to grant the family, friends and NYSC Community the fortitude to bear the painful loss, and in the same vein grant his kind soul everlasting happiness.
His remains were interred Monday, 11th March, 2019 in Akure, Ondo State, according to Islamic rites.
