This is part of resolutions at 2016 Annual
Management Conference of the Scheme, in Asaba, the Delta State capital.
The conference noted that “the NYSC Act provides for uninterrupted service year, and advised prospective Corps members to choose which one to defer between National Service and Law School attendance instead of attempting to combine both. Parents of prospective Corps members have also been advised by the conference to allow their children take
decisions as adults and avoid discouraging them from accepting postings to any locations in the country.
According to the resolutions: “Management also noted the return of normalcy in some states whose orientation camps were closed due to insecurity, and expressed readiness to make phased reopening of the camps after due consultations with security agencies and governments of the affected states.”
The conference resolved to deepen engagements with key stakeholders, including the security and
intelligence community and traditional rulers on
matters of security and general well-being of Corps members.
Beginning from the 2016 Batch ‘A’ Orientation, as agreed by the conference, Corps members would be sensitized on national attitudinal change. It was also agreed that the policy on posting of the corps members to places of primary assignment would be reviewed to meet contemporary needs.
Participants resolved that the Scheme would set up committees to study strategies for tackling challenges posed by the increasing population of corps members as espoused in a research report presented at the conference.
