Deployment, relocation of Corps members free, on merit says NYSC

The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) on Thursday reiterated that the deployment and relocation of Corps members is free and effected on individual merit, in line with its laid down policy.

It said these are carried out in accordance with the deployment and relocation policies of the Scheme.

This is contained in a statement issued by the Scheme’s Spokesperson, Mr. Eddy Megwa.

Also, it said mobilization of Prospective Corps Members for national service is free of charge, as Corps producing institutions are not required to pay.

The statement reads:” The management of the National Youth Service Corps wishes to reiterate that Deployment and Relocation of Prospective Corps Members, as well as Corps Members, are carried out free of charge, and in accordance with the Deployment and Relocation policies of the Scheme.

“Accordingly, Relocation of Corps Members is effected on individual merit, in line with the laid down policy.

“Any infraction on the above policies should be reported to the Heads of the nearest NYSC formations nationwide, NYSC National Directorate Headquarters Abuja and or the security agencies for prompt action.”
