A female member of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has lost her life while serving the nation in Zamfara state.

Bibiana Zira, 29, died after contracting pneumonia. She had been admitted in hospital for two weeks all to no avail. The incident was confirmed by the State NYSC Coordinator, Ruth Bakka.

According to Reports, Bakka said the corps member was on admission for two weeks at the Federal Medical Centre, Gusau, but died on Monday at the age of 29.

She said that during the deceased’s stay at the hospital, some fellow corps members donated blood to her, but that due to the strike action at the hospital, she could not receive the blood.

The coordinator added that the deceased was transferred to Yerima Bakura Specialist Hospital, Gusau, where she was given oxygen but that she died later.

Bakka said Zira was the first corps member that died of an illness in Gusau.
She said there were cases of corps members falling sick during their service year, but that once they were taken to the hospital, they would be treated and discharged.
