Communities, where members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) have been reported to be harassed, have been warned to desist from such.

The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, Resident Electoral Commissioner for Osun State, Dr Mutiu Agboke, added that security agencies had been briefed, saying such harassment would be branded as hate speech.

Agboke issued the warning during a monitored radio programme in Osogbo, the state capital, on Wednesday.

He was responding to alleged attacks on INEC ad-hoc staff, and members of the NYSC deployed during the February 25, 2023, presidential and National Assembly elections.
