The Management of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), has informed Prospective Corps Members deployed to Niger State for the 2026 Batch ‘B’ Stream I Service Year that their Orientation Course has been postponed until a later date.
This was contained in a statement issued by the Director, Information and Public Relations of the NYSC, Caroline Embu.
According to the statement, “the decision became necessary due to the ongoing renovation of the NYSC Orientation Camp in Paiko, Niger State, being undertaken by the Niger State Government following the extensive damage caused by a recent windstorm.
“Consequently, NYSC Management is making urgent arrangements to secure an alternative venue for the Orientation Course. A new commencement date and other relevant details will be communicated to affected Prospective Corps Members in due course,” the statement reads
The management of the scheme expressed regret over any inconvenience the postponement may cause to the Prospective Corps Members and their families and appreciated their understanding and cooperation.
