Prospective National Youth Service Corps member to provide evidence of covid-19 vaccination

The Director General of The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), while addressing the 2021 Batch "C" stream Two Corps Members and camp officials via a virtual meeting. Made it known that henceforth all the incoming Corps will provide evidence of the covid-19 vaccination.

This decision became highly necessary because of the emergence of the new covid-19 variant, Omicron.

No Prospective Corps Member (PCM), will be allowed into the camp for registration unless you are vaccinated. 

“We want to ensure that we adhere strictly to the non-pharmaceutical protocols of COVID-19,” the DG added.

The Direc­tor-General also encouraged the Corps members to acquire entrepreneurial skills that would  create an opportunity for them to become business owners, instead of jostling for the scarcely available salaried jobs.

He made it known to the Corp members that the scheme had partnered several institutions like the Central Bank of Ni­geria, Access Bank, Bank of Industry, NYSC Foundation, Heritage Bank and others to provide soft loans to corps members with good business proposals.

The Director-General also reiterated the need for the Corps members to take advantage of the skill acquisition training, he said, 

“NYSC is a platform for those that are very serious. Please take the Skill Acqui­sition seriously and ensure you register for the post-camp training. I can assure you that our partners are ready to sup­port us to ensure that the start-up capitals are made available to corps members."
