Tragedy in Maiduguri NYSC camp as female corps member falls ill and d+es days after arrival at orientation camp

A corps member identified as Lohina Bamaiyi Ajegena has reportedly d+ed just a few days after arriving at the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) orientation camp in Maiduguri.

She was said to have fallen ill shortly after the commencement of the orientation exercise and passed away on April 27, 2026. The sad news was confirmed by fellow corps members, who shared tributes on Facebook.

One of her colleagues, Augustine Pamela, said they first met at a motor park while travelling to Maiduguri for the camp and later developed a close bond during the programme.

According to Pamela, Lovina became seriously ill about six days into the orientation camp, and she took it upon herself to care for her. She also explained that she later became ill as well, and both of them were admitted to the same hospital, where Lovina eventually d+ed.
