A tragic event happened in one of the remote areas in Bayelsa where a newly posted corps member named valentine was posted to one of the remote areas in the state, died in a boat mishap all because he couldn't swim and there no life jacket to save his life.

What a loss!!! A friend of the deceased wrote on his page about the loss and how terrible it is living in such areas without much care from the NYSC.

As shared by his friend:



We became friends in camp, later we got posted to the same PPA and inevitably became roommates. You said you were going to town to buy one or two things, but Valentine Umeh! You never made it back to our Corpers' Lodge. 

The speed boat Corper Valentine was inside capsized and he didn't survive just because NYSC couldn't provide Life Jacket for most of us serving in remote Islands here in Bayelsa.  

14th February should have been your Birthday, and you said you were gonna turn our Corpers Lodge upside down with so much fun but now you are no more. 

RIP my friend... Corper Valentine Umeh #KoolGuy #MyFriend #MyRoommate #UniAbujaGraduate #GreatEconomist #Kennedyisgonnamissu4life.
