Taraba Governor Wants Corp Members To Learn How To Handle Gun


The Governor of Taraba State, Darius Ishaku, is proposing the members of the National Youth Service Corps should be allowed to undergo military training in order to know how to handle guns for self-defence.
The Governor also said the duration of the youth scheme should be extended from one year to two years to allow sufficient training for the graduates.
He stated this on Wednesday night when he featured in Channels Television’s ‘Politics Today’ programme.
Ishaku, whose state is one of the North-East states affected by Boko Haram insurgency coupled with killings by armed militias, emphasised that citizens should be allowed to bear arms and defend themselves against their aggressors.
