BREAKING: NYSC Moves Thousands of Registered PCMs from Batch ‘A’ to ‘B’
The National Youth Service Corps has relocated thousands of registered prospective Corps members (PCMs) from the 2024 Batch ‘A’ stream II to Batch ‘B’ Stream I.
In a statement issued by the scheme’s Director of Press and Public Relations, Eddy Megwa, on Monday, stated that the decision was made due to the overpopulation of registered PCMs for the stream, affirmed that the aim is to adhere to best practices and ensure a comfortable and conducive environment for the smooth running of the Orientation Exercise.
The scheme further noted that Prospective Corps Members who have registered and will not be called up for the 2024 Batch ‘A’ stream Two exercise should expect their call-up letters for the June 2024 Orientation Exercise.
Parts of the statement reads, “The Management of National Youth Service Corps wishes to inform the general public especially the Prospective Corps Members that the 2024 Batch ‘A’ Stream Two Orientation Course will commence nationwide on Wednesday, 17th April, 2024. A total of One Hundred and Three Thousand (103,000) PCMs successfully registered and ready for mobilization.

“The Management of National Youth Service Corps wishes to inform the general public especially the Prospective Corps Members that the 2024 Batch ‘A’ Stream Two Orientation Course will commence nationwide on Wednesday, 17th April, 2024. A total of One Hundred and Three Thousand (103,000) PCMs successfully registered and ready for mobilization.”
“In keeping with best practices and ensuring a modest and conducive environment for the smooth running of the Orientation Exercise, and also looking at the number of registered PCMs, the various Orientation Camp capacity cannot accommodate the large number of registered PCMs at the same time, hence, the utmost need to mobilize them in Batches and Streams.”
“The Scheme strongly believe that mobilizing PCMs in Batches will not only decongest the camps, but also maintain optimal health conditions in the Orientation Camps.”
Management therefore wish to inform the Prospective Corps Members who have registered and will not be call-up for the 2024 Batch ‘A’ stream Two exercise to expect their call up letters for June 2024 Orientation Exercise.
The Director General of NYSC, Brigadier General YD Ahmed wishes all Prospective Corps Members safe trip to their respective Orientation Camps across the country.
All information regarding the Orientation Course will be posted on the NYSC Social Media Handles and other traditional media.
