The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) Monday announced that prospective corps members deployed to Enugu and Osun states are to note that the orientation exercise for the states will commence on Tuesday, 28th April 2026, and end on Monday, 18th May, 2026; one week after commencement in the other 34 states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
A statement signed by the director of Information and Public Relations of the scheme, Caroline Embu, stated that the slight adjustment was due to the on-going extensive renovation of the camps by the state governments which has 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,” she stated.
The statement added that affected prospective corps members are to note the differing dates for compliance.
