The National Youth Service Corps has announced that the 2025 Batch ‘B’ Stream II Orientation Course will commence nationwide on Wednesday, September 24, 2025, across all orientation camps.

According to a a statement issued via its official Facebook page on Monday, the scheme said registration will run until midnight on Friday, September 26, while the swearing-in ceremony is scheduled for the same day.

It added that the three-week exercise will end with a closing ceremony on Tuesday, October 14, 2025.

However, the NYSC clarified that the orientation course in Kwara State will open later, beginning on Tuesday, September 30, and closing on Monday, October 20, 2025.

The statement said the Director-General of the NYSC, Brigadier-General Olakunle Nafiu, urged all Prospective Corps Members to report to the camps indicated in their call-up letters, stressing the need for compliance with all registration requirements. Foreign-trained graduates are expected to present their international passports and original copies of uploaded documents.

He warned PCMs against presenting fake documents, cautioning that offenders would be handed over to law enforcement agencies for prosecution. Graduates of monotechnics and polytechnics are specifically required to produce their National Diploma certificates as part of the registration process.

In the event of a lost call-up letter, the NYSC directed corps members who collected theirs from their institutions to obtain a police report and sworn affidavit before returning to their schools for further action. Those who printed theirs online can reprint copies.

Highlighting safety concerns, the scheme strongly advised PCMs against night journeys.

“Once it is 6:00pm, prospective corps members are enjoined to break their journeys and spend the night at military or police barracks, NYSC secretariats or corps lodges nearest to their disembarkation point,” the statement read.

The NYSC also advised corps members to only patronize government-approved motor parks and transportation companies to avoid falling prey to criminals.

The NYSC boss was quoted as saying, “Any prospective corps member who refuses to report for service or participates illegally in the scheme will be prosecuted, as stipulated by the NYSC Act.”

He added, “Married, pregnant, and nursing mothers posted outside their husbands’ states of residence may complete the orientation course in their states of domicile, provided they present evidence of marriage, their husbands’ identification, and proof of residence.

“For registration, all corps members must present their original call-up letters, statements of result or certificates, school identity cards, and certificates of medical fitness issued by government or military hospitals stamped by the Nigerian Medical Association. Medical and allied health graduates are also required to show proof of registration with their respective professional bodies.”

The NYSC boss concluded by saying, “We wish all prospective corps members safe travels to their various camps and a successful service year.”
