The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), have urged corps members not to violate the ban on inter-state journeys in a bid to collect their Certificate of National Service.
Corps members are only encouraged to travel once the ban has been lifted and it is considered safe to travel.
The passing-out for the 2019 Batch “B” Stream 1 Corps Members have been slated nationwide for Thursday, 28th May 2020 and have been announced.
NYSC Director of Press and Public Relations, Adenike Adeyemi (Mrs), yesterday in Abuja, said
“In keeping with COVID-19 protocol of social/physical distancing, Certificate of National Service (CNS) shall be issued to qualified Corps Members at the Local Government level.
“Accordingly, a full complement of NYSC Officers have been mobilised for the distribution; and shall do so from ten service points in each of the Local Government Councils.
“As a precautionary measure, the distribution shall be staggered for a period of ten days in the first instance, in order to remove anxiety from the concerned Corps Members, in addition to making the activity seamless and less cumbersome.
“Management heartily congratulates the 2019 Batch “B” Stream 1 Corps Members for the successful completion of the service, which undeniably is a major milestone.
“Dear Corps Members, as you go for your CNS from Thursday, 28th May, remember to ensure the strictest observance of discipline; anchored on orderliness, adherence to instructions, added to the rules of social/physical distancing, use of facemask, hand sanitiser and proper washing of the hands with liquid soap for at least twenty seconds during the activity.
“Kindly note that unclaimed certificates shall be returned to the NYSC National Directorate Headquarters, Abuja two weeks after the lifting of inter-state travel ban.
“Please, always stay in touch with our social media platforms, as well as the mainstream media for further information.
Woah, that’s nice. Thank God
