Photos: INEC employs ex-corps member who became blind during the 2011 general election

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has offered automatic employment to an Ex-Corps member Daniel Oluwatobi, who served in Yobe State and lost his sight as a result of his involvement in a road accident while on election duty during the 2011 general elections.

The Director-General of NYSC pointed out that there was the need to review the MOU between the two organizations. He particularly emphasized the need to enhance measures towards the safety of Corps members during elections as well as the review of the allowance given to them and the insurance cover.

Speaking later in an interview, Daniel Oluwatobi thanked both INEC and INEC for showing concern about his plight noting that with their intervention, he was now a happy person.
