The symbolic welcome took place at the Ten Commandments Prayer Altar in Doi, Jos South Local Government Area of Plateau State. The occasion was a significant gathering, drawing prominent individuals from both Plateau State and across the nation.
The Director General of the NYSC, Brigadier General Y. D. Ahmed, was represented by the State Coordinator of NYSC Plateau, Mr. Jonathan I. Yavala.
