NYSC Extends Service Years of Corps Members in Lagos

The National Youth Service Corps, Lagos, has extended the service year of about 24 Batch B Stream 1 corps members as punishment for undisclosed disciplinary issues.

This was revealed in a statement released on May 26, 2020 and signed by the state coordinator, Eddy Megwa.

It was also reported that there were 18 other corps members already listed for having pending disciplinary issues.

While Batch B Stream 1 corps members are scheduled to pass out from Thursday, May 28, the service year of the affected corps members will be extended by a period of two weeks to four months.

“Affected corps members are to report to NYSC, State Secretariat, Surulere on Wednesday, 27th May, 2020 between 10:00 am to 11:30 to collect their respective letters of disciplinary decision. Strict adherence to time schedule is advised,” the statement reads.

NYSC also announced that the collection of certificates would last for ten days due to the Covid-19 pandemic. It urged corps members to adhere strictly to social distancing guidelines.
