The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has asked married female prospective corps members who have been posted to states where their husbands do not reside to request redeployment.
The scheme made this known in a post on X.com on Monday.
The scheme said, “ATTENTION ALL 2024 BATCH ”B” STREAM II MARRIED FEMALE PROSPECTIVE CORPS MEMBERS
“All married female Prospective Corps members (PCM’s) who are deployed to States where their husbands are not domiciled should report to the nearest NYSC Orientation Camp for their State of Deployment to be changed.
“They are to report during the period of registration at the Orientation Camps with copies of their marital and other relevant documents as evidence. Once the change is made it will reflect on their dashboard for reprinting.”
It was established on May 22, 1973, based on decree No. 24 which stated that the scheme was created “with a view to the proper encouragement and development of common ties among the youths of Nigeria and the promotion of national unity”
To be eligible, graduates must be below 30 years old upon graduation.
Those above 30 years receive a Certificate of Exemption, equivalent to the NYSC Discharge Certificate.
Successfully completing the service year earns corps members a certificate of satisfactory participation.
