5. NYSC Orientation Camp

I know you are already familiar with this. Right from your hundred level days, I’m sure you always get excited to see corpers in Camp. It is now your turn; how time flies.

How long do corpers spend in orientation camp? You will spend three weeks at Camp doing a lot of programmes. The orientation camp is always fun (if not the sweetest part of NYSC).

6. Place Of Primary Assignment (PPA)

On the last day in Orientation camp, you will collect a letter that will specify the particular place where you will do your service. This is called the Place of Primary Assignment.

Your place of assignment can be a secondary school, an industry, University and even government office. You can change your PPA if you are not satisfied with it.

7. NYSC Allowee

The is the biggest NYSC news right now. If you are serving this year 2021, you are in luck because Allowance has increased from #19,800 to #33,000. You will get a monthly payment of 33k starting from when you are in the orientation camp. The last payment will double (66k).

You will open a new bank account and that is where the NYSC Allowee will be entering. It always comes about 2-3 days before the end of the month. Your allowance can come late some months.

8. CDS Group

CDS Stands for Community Development Service. The NYSC officials will split every Corps members into different CDS Group and they will be meeting once in a week. CDS is very important as you cannot do your clearance if you did not participate in your CDS group. This is where you brainstorm on how to do something important for the community where you serve.

9. Clearance

NYSC clearance exercise takes place every month end. If you miss a clearance, you will not collect your Allowee for that month and that is automatically an extension. The date for the clearance is always different and it depends on your Local Government schedule.

10. NYSC Passing Out Parade

This is the last ceremony of your Youth SERVICE Scheme. Remember, everything that has a beginning will surely have an end.

No matter how you enjoy your place of assignment, you will end your NYSC after some months and face real life. Then no number seven (allowance) anymore. The passing out parade is always on a low key whereby you will go to your Local Government and collect your NYSC certificate.
