NYSC relocates Bauchi orientation camp

The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has announced the relocation of the orientation camp for the 2024 Batch ‘B’ Stream II corps members to Adamu Tafawa Balewa College of Education in Kangere, Bauchi State.

This was disclosed in a statement by the NYSC Coordinator in Bauchi State, Mrs. Rifkatu Yakubu, on Monday.

According to Yakubu, the relocation is a temporary measure to facilitate the rehabilitation of the Permanent Orientation Camp in Wailo, Ganjuwa Local Government Area, as directed by Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed.

The governor has ordered a complete renovation of the existing camp facilities.

“The relocation to the new facility becomes necessary so as to allow the state government to pursue the renovation work of the permanent orientation camp,” Yakubu explained.

The NYSC has deployed 1,900 prospective corps members to Bauchi State for the orientation exercise, which is scheduled to take place from August 28 to September 17.

Yakubu also advised the prospective corps members to avoid travelling at night and to break their journeys if necessary, resuming travel the following day to ensure their safety.
