According to him, ‘Settle down in your places of Primary Assignment, respect the culture, norms, and traditions of the communities you are going to serve, and be ready to offer your selfless services to the communities. Always avoid unnecessary and nightly journeys. Once it is 6 p.m., break your journey and pass the night in safe places like military barracks, Corps Lodges, NYSC Formations, and Police Barracks, and continue the following day.’
