2. Sharp Objects

Sharp objects like knives, scissors, and razors are not allowed. They are considered potential weapons, and their presence in the camp seriously violates the rules. 

3. Cooking Equipment

Bringing gas cylinders, stoves, or any form of cooking equipment is not allowed. Meals are provided in the camp kitchen, and corps members are not permitted to cook in their hostels for safety reasons.

4. Weapons of Any Kind

Firearms, ammunition, and other weapons are completely prohibited. Carrying such items is illegal and can lead to immediate expulsion or criminal charges.

5. Fake or Invalid Documents

Ensure all your documents are authentic and valid before entering the camp. Fake credentials can result in immediate dismissal and legal action against you.

6. Electronics Beyond the Basics

Gadgets like large speakers, laptops, and personal routers are not allowed. Basic items like phones and chargers are permitted, but excessive gadgets may be confiscated.

7. Unauthorized Uniforms

You are only allowed to wear the official NYSC-issued uniforms. Wearing military or paramilitary outfits not issued by the NYSC is considered impersonation and could lead to disciplinary action.
