| 558 | Demilola Ayodimeji | London, United Kingdom | The continual killing of innocent souls, who are meant to shape the future of the nation has to stop. How many lives must we lose? How many tears must we cry just to uphold our human rights? If killings like this continue, we would not have a future. Plea |

| 552 | Aji Robinson | , United States of America | Folks, let us still send this out even if only to let them hear our voices. |
| 551 | Dayo Adeyemi | UK, United Kingdom | This is such a dastardly act. Why dont these almajiris 'give themselves brain'. Where are the kids of Buhari, the sultans,emirs, governors, commisioner of police? |
| 550 | Ayo Oladejo | Johannesburg, South Africa | Correct. Until we have a real country called Nigeria and not many countries lumped together disunited and with different focus; NYSC should be reformed and postings should be within individual regions. But if that is done, then the aim is defeated. Maybe |

| 543 | Stephen Oleba | Lagos, Nigeria | Indeed enough is enough, our gov must not be allowed to play games games with the lives of patriotic coppers who died on their duty post with one political statement or the other. They should be made to act immediately. |
| 542 | Yomi Popoola | lagos, Nigeria | |
| 541 | Emeka Enechi | Abuja, Nigeria | The scheme has outlived its usefulness. In today\'s borderless world we do not need the NYSC to tell us that people have the same needs - respect, freedom and other human rights |

| 537 | Magdalene Ante | , United States of America | I served in Gombe and remember running home during the crisis in the north in 2009. Christian/ Southern Corpers should not be posted to the north. Nigeria is one, but truth is, we Christians and Southerners do more for them while serving than they do. By |
| 536 | Rock Abolade | Bayelsa State (Yenagoa), Nigeria | Nigeria is too big for some few groups of unscrupulous elements that take pleasure in killing fellow Nigerians in the quest for power. |

| 529 | Emma Nwankwo | Abakaliki, Nigeria | NYSC should be scrapped as it has not served the purposes for which it was instituted.

| 516 | Philip U | Lagos, Nigeria | It is very sad that these poor souls fell for such an undeserving country like Nigeria. We must immortalize their sacrifice through these changes and bring the inciters of the violence to book. |
| 515 | Ekaete Usoroh | Ibadan, Nigeria | Seven years ago, I was posted to serve in Jigawa but refused to go. I was eventually re-posted to FCT where I eventually served. I have never been convinced of the governments ability to safe-guard Youth Corp members from incessant violence, road traffic |

| 513 | Vin Okeadu | Calgary, Canada | I am weary of futile lamentation. Without further delay, GEJ needs to convoke that long-overdue Sovereign National Conference. The incessant wasting of invaluable human resources of the South by their Northern neighbours eloquently calls for the renegotia |

| 510 | Lanre Adejare | Lagos, Nigeria | I am in support the recall cos\' it shows the corpers are not usefull to them. A total re-evalution of the NYSC scheme must also be carried out before next postings. |

| 493 | Keresifon Ekpenyong | Tema, Ghana | The scheme needs reappraisal. It should be suspended pending when its been redefined |
| 492 | Orji Cicero | Lagos, Nigeria | This is not just enough the United Nations should step in an investigate these act of genocide against fellow Nigerians, culprits identified and prosecuted as a deterent to other. On a different note, the north is angling towards a break up of this entity |
| 491 | Nnorom Azuonye | London, UK | There is a possibility that the Nigeria experiment might work in the future. At the moment it looks superlatively doomed. This is a good time for all sections of the society to take a few steps back and consider whether or not we must remain one country. |

| 483 | Femi Adekunle | Abuja, Nigeria | I am in support of the total REVAMPING of the NYSC scheme as long as the Govt. is un-able to guarantee the safety of ALL the corp members in the respective places of their postings. In light of all that has transpired in this last Election, our Leaders ei |

| 481 | Caroline Samuel | Imo state, Nigeria | i dont need the sit tight order from anyone or the threat of recinding my decision to know that people who have more regards for their cows than humans are desperately polishing measures to bring death upon me. |
| 480 | Benson Jacob | Lagos, Nigeria | Signed Sealed And Delivered. Now We Expect A Positive Response From The Government. |
| 479 | Godwin Larry | Bayelsa, Nigeria | Safety first: it should take nothing short of a tsunami, a seasoned soldier with a loaded weapon point blanked at my head with the will to use it and the will not to continue living for me to leave my room for election business in the north. If that is th |
| 478 | Nnaemeka Ezenwa | Port Harcourt, Nigeria | NYSC should be scrapped because it only provides cheap but professional labour for the North on an annual basis, while Nothern graduates who study only islamic studies remain useless and irrelevant to the Nation as a whole. |
| 477 | Architect Ojelabi Oludolapo | Lagos, Nigeria | |
| 476 | Ikenna Iwunze | Port Harcourt, Nigeria | I recommend an ANNUAL forum e.g. a memorial day to remember all such corp members. Also their identities (with photographs) when made public will give the situation the due \'human face\' it deserves. |
| 475 | Ahiamadu Jackson Samuel | Miri, Malaysia | |
| 474 | Elisha Nkankpo | Port Harcourt, Nigeria | |
| 473 | Jamiu Abiodun Gbadamosi | Lagos, Nigeria | I strongly suggest and support the call for the scraping of the NYSC or at let them serve in their geo-political zones. We can\'t seat here and see our well trained youths being butchered to death by bunch of illiterates in the north. |

| 467 | Chukwuemeka Afigbo | Anthony Village, Lagos, Nigeria | I agree with the petition. I do not think NYSC should be scrapped , It is a security question. We need to be able to hold people responsible for deaths (whether of corps members or otherwise). |
| 466 | Atilola Moronfolu | Lagos, Nigeria | |
| 465 | Chiamaka Okafor | UK, UK | Security is the entitlement of a very citizen of this country. Most of all for those working for the government. If you cant provide that, don\'t put them in danger |
| 464 | Ibukun Adewale | Lagos, Nigeria | |
| 463 | Godson Faith | Ibadan, Nigeria | Kudos to the writer, the NYSC scheme should be srcapped or corp members should be posted to states within their geo-political zone or they should be allowed to serve in their state of origin.Meanwhile, the murderers and their sponsors or collaborators sho |
| 462 | Dehekan Umobio | Aberdeen, UK | I also think the governors of states where Youth Corps Members ars killed or harmed should be made to face a public inquiry at the behest of the National assembly and made to explain the security situation in his state and why his state should receive any |
| 461 | Tsals Enejo | Abuja, Nigeria | NYSC shdnt be scrapped bt be reformed to allow member to serve within his/her zone, and nt to be sending innocent pple to d north to b killed. |
| 460 | Christiana Koko | Port Harcourt, Nigeria | We cannot begin to count the number of corps who have lost their lives due to violence in the north, right from the onset. if the government cannot protect the lives of the Corps serving their nation, then NYSC should be voluntary. |
| 459 | Uchenna Ani-Okoye | London, UK | |

| 450 | Ivy Ubong | Lagos, Nigeria | The NYSC scheme has become a veritable tool for untimely deaths and mayhem. It\'s time everyone served within their geographical zones, or the program is scrapped! |
| 449 | Chris Nezianya | London, UK | This wanton killing of yong Nigerians mst be condamed outright and by the northern leaders if they are sincere about ONE Nigeria. Otherwise they should gather themselves and GO. The 1914 amagamation continues to prove a nightmare jst like the popular cry |
| 448 | adebukola m adetoro | Iowa city, USA | Ignoring the deaths of these young and brave Nigerians implied a death sentence on the nation called Nigeria. Lack of action on the part of authorities concerned implied that they are unfit to rule Nigeria and it begs the question of their humanity |
