A corp member identified as Miss Hilda Amadi, who was participating in the ongoing orientation exercise for new members of the National Youth Service in Kwara State, has reportedly died.

CEOAfrica gathered that Amadi was a graduate of Oil and Gas Engineering from the University of Port Harcourt, Rivers State where she hailed from.

It was also learnt that there are divergent accounts of the cause of her death; however her autopsy and coronary reports are still being awaited.

The corps member, who was said to belong to Platoon Five in the camp, reportedly suffered a bone fracture during a morning drill on April 23 and was rushed to the clinic.

Some of her colleagues, who pleaded anonymity, claimed that there was no experienced medical doctor in the clinic at the time she was taken there.

They further disclosed that the young lady was later rushed to a government-owned hospital in Ilorin, the state capital, where she reportedly died after her condition deteriorated.

The Kwara State Coordinator, NYSC, Mr. Remigius Amaefule, who confirmed the incident during a telephone chat with our correspondent, said Amadi’s death had left every one of them in shock.

He, however, denied insinuations that there was no experienced resident doctor in the camp at the time of the incident.

He said, “At this stage, what we need is to condole with the parents of the girl and let them know that we are very sorry for what happened.
