NYSC Director of Information and Public Relations, Mr Eddy Megwa, who made the appeal in a statement in Abuja on Friday also implored anyone who had information on the missing officials to contact the law enforcement agencies.
Megwa said: “The NYSC Akwa-Ibom State Coordinator, Mr Okun Christopher and his driver, Mr Daniel Asibong were travelling in a white official Hilux vehicle with registration number 27D31FG when they were last heard of.
“The scheme also enjoins all well-meaning individuals from both states to assist the security agencies in the search and rescue efforts of the missing NYSC officials”.
Megwa urged anyone with useful information regarding their whereabouts to contact the law enforcement agents in Anambra and Imo.
“They could also contact any of the 37 NYSC state secretariats, Area Offices and National Directorate Headquarters in Maitama, Abuja or the nearest police station for immediate action,” he added.
