The National Youth Service Corps has asked Prospective Corps Members (PCMs) deployed to Enugu and Osun states to note that the Orientation Exercise for these states will commence on Tuesday, 28th April 2026, and end on Monday, 18th May, 2026.
NYSC Spokesperson, Caroline Embu who announced this in a statement on Monday said their orientation course would start one week after commencement in the other 34 states and the FCT.
Embu explained that the slight adjustment was due to the on-going extensive renovation of the Camps by the State Governments which necessitated the change in date.
“For the avoidance of doubt, the Orientation Exercise for all other states and the FCT is scheduled to be held from Wednesday, 22nd April 2026 – Tuesday 12th May 2026.
“Affected Prospective Corps Members are to duly note these differing dates for compliance, please.
“The NYSC wishes all Prospective Corps Members a safe journey to their states of deployment”, the statement concluded.
