NYSC 2nd Stream Orientation Still Suspended As DG Clarifies Reasons by oluwadanie1(m): 1:33pm On Aug 17, 2014
The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has clarified that the orientation course for prospective corps members deployed to some States was suspended due to a Federal Government’s directive that all schools should remain closed rather than the outbreak of Ebola Virus Disease.

In a press release signed by the NYSC management, the scheme explained that the
orientation course for Stream II of corps members posted to Bauchi, Gombe, Adamawa, Jigawa, Yobe and Borno States was suspended due to the federal government’s pronouncement that all schools currently on vacation should remain closed to avert the spread of the Ebola Virus Disease.

NYSC 2014 BATCH B STREAM 2 CORPERS STILL GOING SEPTEMBER:

Report from Leadership has it that

The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has stated as false reports aired on a national television station that the orientation course for prospective corps members deployed to Bauchi, Gombe, Adamawa, Jigawa, Yobe and Borno States has been suspended due to the outbreak of Ebola Virus Disease.

In a press release signed by its management yesterday, the scheme explained that the orientation course for Stream II was suspended due to the federal government’s pronouncement that all schools currently on vacation should remain closed to avert the spread of the Ebola Virus Disease.

It therefore stated that the report aired was misleading and capable of causing fear and panic among residents of the states mentioned.

‘’For the purpose of putting the record straight, management of the NYSC took a decision in July2014 to shift the venues of orientation course for seven states; namely, Bauchi Gombe, Jigawa, Borno, Yobe Adamawa and Kano, to other states due to security challenges and the fears of parents whose wards are to be mobilised.

Therefore the orientation course in these seven states and that of Osun as well as additional corps members for Lagos State was planned to hold from 1st to 22nd September, 2014 under Stream II of the 2014 Batch ‘B’,’’ it said.

Please understand these things from the words of the DG.

Firstly on NYSC Director general Visit To ISELUKU DELTAThe NYSC boss, who spoke after inspecting the Delta State Orientation Camp at Issele-Uku in Aniocha North Local Government Area of the state, described as “pragmatic” the above approach to issues concerning the welfare of corps members nationwide.He assured corps members of their safety even in the Boko Haram infested states of the federation.He said: “The scheme is in partnership with state governments across the country.“There is an integrated framework geared towards ensuring the safety of corps members throughout the service year.”According to Olawumi, the NYSC Directorate Headquarters operates a 24-hour distress call centre, with numbers already given to corps members.While he urged the corps members to avail themselves of the opportunity provided, he explained that the closest security agency to the place of the distressed call would be contacted for speedy response.Congratulating the Batch ‘B’ corps members who were recently sworn-in, Olawumi urged them to utilize the opportunity of the NYSC Skills Acquisition and Entrepreneurship Development Programme to acquire various skills in order to be self-employed after the service year.He also announced that the Batch ‘B’ corps members would participate in the 2015 general elections.Earlier, the NYSC Coordinator in the state, Olive Essien Etukudo, said 2,844 corps members comprising 1,367 males and 1,477 females were registered for the 2014 batch ‘B’ Orientation Course

On a another visit, to Abuja.

The director general basically charged them on codes of conduct. He mentioned them being careful onwhat they post online and other crucial advice. The NYSC Director general never mentioned suspension in any to corp members undergoing orientation.

However, AIT said on a 'suppose personal' interview with the DG they gathered that

"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.Youth Corpers."

But please understand:

General Review NYSC stream 2

Dear NYSC Batch B 2014 stream 2 Corpers; Do not panic

For NYSC stream 2 Corpers, please do not panic much you will all be going in September. Even if NYSC has plans of making any adjustment it will be properly broadcasted, and also in there website not on a personal media interview alone.

Let me explain a little,

To start with; please discard any rumor that says NYSC orientation for stream 2 have been canceled. Currently, NYSC is laising with the state government on strategies to establish in camp so as to curb/halt the proliferation of Ebola virus.

NYSC seeks a situation where each corp member is properly screened before they get into the orientation ground. But this will not happen with the speed of light.

'Coming to think of it as an individual, one can infer that It is easier for states like Lagos and Osun because the corp member involved will be undergoing there PPA and CDS in the same state. But for states like Adamawa, Borno, Yobe, Jigawa, Gombe and Bauchi the corp members will be camping in Niger, Nassarawa, FCT, Kaduna, Benue,Plateau respectively; as explained in our previous post' . (possibly AIT thought this way to arrive at there new). Though the DG might have mentioned something similar; but we can't state here since it was an personal interview between them and the DG.

It is possible that the DG have that in mind too, but this have not been made it public.

So we can liken it that the suppose suspension is an incentive to trigger the government to intervene, as tge speed of government compliment with NYSC request will go a long way to commencing the stream 2 batch as initial proposed. As Ebola virus is a nation wide bio terror is expected that the government will turn up. Which means the stream 2 date won't be affected; even if it those just slightly but in the same month as batch C will still commence in November.

but this was however not made public or stated anywhere.

However please note

For stream 2 corpers, even though you camp in another state, you are likened to an ambassador of the original state you are posted. The military personnel to handle you officially, is the military personnel deployed to your original state of deployment.

And after your camp arrangement is made to convey you safely to your original place of deployment for primary assignment. Many have mentioned redeploying, our previous post explains that. The issue of your allowance won't be affected.

In summary, from all indication all stream 2, will be camping in September. (If any slight changes occurs you will be informed.

Secondly, batch C will also commence Nov

Thirdly, stream 2 corpers won't stay longer than necessary...

Bonet is still confused with all these nonsense o.... Make i no miss camp fa. Are we still camping on 1st
