The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has
announced the suspension of scheduled stream
two orientation programme of the 2014 Batch ‘B’
Orientation in six states billed to start on
Monday September 1 due to the dreaded Ebola
virus disease in the country.
The Director General of the NYSC, Brig Gen Johnson
olawumi who announced the decision in Kubwa
Orientation Camp in the Federal Capital Territory
said the corps members deployed to Adamawa,
Bauchi, Jigawa, Borno, Gombe, and Yobe States will
be affected by the directive.
Olawumi however assured the prospective corps
members that they would not suffer unduly as the
NYSC would ensure that they were not cheated in any
way by staying longer than necessary at home.
It would be recalled that the Stream Two exercise,
meant for the affected northern states, is scheduled
for Monday, September 1, to Monday, September
22.
Corps members posted to Adamawa State will have
their orientation programme in Niger; Bauchi corps
members are expected to resume in Plateau State
orientation camp, while those posted to Borno State
are to proceed to the Nasarawa State camp.
Other affected states are Gombe, where corps
members are expected to serve in Benue, with
Jigawa State corps members expected to have their
orientation programme in Kaduna.
Corps members posted to Yobe State are expected
to resume at the Federal Capital Territory
Orientation camp.
