There was confusion among corps members at the Bayelsa State Orientation Camp in Kaiama, Kolokuma-Opokuma Local Government Area of the state following the death of a female member of the National Youth Service Corps.
Ifedolapo
The female corps member, who was identified as Miss Elechi Chinyerem, aged 27, reportedly died after vomiting on arrival at the camp.
Elechi, a graduate of the Ignatius Azuru University of Education, Port Harcourt, Rivers State, was confirmed dead about 9pm on Tuesday, five days after arriving the camp.
Some corps members claimed the deceased on arrival at the camp last Thursday looked “terribly sick” and could not participate in some opening sessions at the camp.
It was also learnt that the deceased corps member reportedly relapsed into ill-health and was rushed to the sick bay of the camp at about 8pm on Tuesday.
A source said, “The doctor at the NYSC camp’s clinic immediately referred her to the state-owned Diette-Koki Memorial Hospital in the Opolo area of Yenagoa, the state capital, where she was confirmed dead.”
Similarly, another female corps member Ifedolapo Oladapo on Monday gave up the ghost at the NYSC orientation camp in Kano.
Reports making rounds on internet suggests that Ifedolapo died due to negligence by the camp medical department.
