The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has reported that Mr. Okun Christopher, the Akwa Ibom State Coordinator, and his driver, Mr. Daniel Effiong Asibong, have been declared missing. The announcement was made by Eddy Megwa, Director of the Press and Public Relations Department, during a press briefing in Abuja.
