In a shocking development, the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has commenced an investigation into the death of a National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) member at the Enugu orientation camp, according to THISDAYLIVE. The exact cause of the death remains unclear, but the report indicates that the deceased was found unresponsive in their lodge at the camp.
