The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has announced that married female prospective corps members who have been posted to states where their husbands do not reside can request redeployment. This announcement was made on the NYSC’s official (link unavailable) page on Monday.
To initiate the redeployment process, affected corps members are required to report to the nearest NYSC Orientation Camp for their state of deployment, along with copies of their marital and other relevant documents as evidence. Once the change is made, it will reflect on their dashboard for reprinting.
The NYSC scheme was established in 1973 to promote national unity and involve graduates in nation-building and development. 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.
