1. Your khaki gets smaller with every wash therefore, don't over-amend it. 2. For those who are posted to states where muontains abound, mind how you wear perfumes and other deodorants to avoid bee sting 3. Those who will be traveling for long hours, ensure you always exercise your feet when you have stop-overs 4. Always keep your valuables in your waist bag and don't go to camp with too much hi-tech gadgets (You won't have anybody to hold responsible if they are stolen) 5. If your skin reacts to water, make sure you have your disinfectants with you. 6. Prepare to live 3 weeks regimented life 7. Ladies/ Women Don't throw yourself at platoon commandants to influence your posting, most of them are just out to have the canal knowledge of you. 8. Always report to the clinic whenever you feel sick 9. Platoon 11 are the vans that come behind corps members during endurance trek, sit on one of them if you can't endure the trek 10. Ensure your data are properly documented in the book of life, it is from the book your discharge certificate is prepared 11. Don't eat carelessly 12. Never underestimate the power of networking, make friends with serious minded fellow (They might be the connection you need to secure a good job) 13. Play active roles in camp activities (inter-platoon cooking competition, sports, sanitation etc). 14. No matter how tired you may be after every activity, always make sure you pray to your God. I wish you all a hitch-free orientation. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

Re: Quick Tips For Corpers Before Leaving For Orientation Camp by Jaideyone(m): 1:51pm On Mar 04, 2013 |
Please i need advice. I've been posted to abia state and my sister is going to be in rivers. I know both states share a common boundary. I'm wondering if it's possible for someone to drive us down to both places since they are kind of close. My questions are 1.) can we drive down to abia first then rivers or maybe rivers first then abia? 2.) how far is the distance between abia camp and rivers state camp 3.) what are the possible routes we can use? Which route is the fastest? Which one is the most convinient? i'm awaiting replies. Thanks in advance |

For those of you shouting CONDOM CONDOM know that if u are caught that will be all for u. **Decamping things** but that will be after exposing u and ur partner in the parade ground(usually after morning drill). I dont know about any other camp but Abuja camp was really fun. the food(they brought 21 COWS for the 21 days the entire camping lasted. Then the shocker of our life when 10 additional COWs were brought for the ten platoons to enable them prepare their meals for camp fire night. we even had to do Dogo Lmma and suya admist so many other traditional cuisines. Finally our Sunday Sunday Chrismax as they call it, where we are served a whole chicken lap/wing along with extra delicious rice), the connection and exposed friends, the dorms and the bunks are far above par! Had to repocket my money cos its no used eating at the mammy again, unless we wanna drink beer with its attendant meat and roasted fish. Will always regale the days I spent in that Camp. 3 Likes |

Jaidey-one: It depends on where you are coming from. Although this will be stressfull if both of you insist on using same vehicle. Y not travel on your own and your sister does same? Abia state shares common boundary with Rivers but the Camp is far apart from each other. Still depends on your take-off point like already said. |

Abrantie GH: What exactly is the purpose of NYSC? For an outsider it seems kinda stvpid. bring youth from different culture nd region 2geda. Makes u 2 know ur selves better nd makes a person to know pple nd culture from d region he serves better, since it is design dat an individual 4rm a part of d country is sent to another part of d country. Nigeria is heterogenous in nature. Pple from diverse culture. Hence, NYSC promotes unity nd oneness btw d countrymen. U gain experience rather dan believing any false nd formed tale u heard frm other pple concerning a state. Finanly, it is an experience nd story dat mark d end of ur tale as a primary student. Ma guy it is generally a fun nd can b a terible experience 4 some. I have heard youth in south west saying they wil like to work in south east where they served. |

Don't go with khaki at all, it will be seized at the entrance to the camp except you are lucky. Infact, don't go with any clothing that has nysc written on it or has nysc logo printed on it. |

Pque: [b]1. Swearing in day is like the ceremony that kicks off Camp (Officially!). Its the Day that a Government Dignitary (Normally the Governor of your State of deployment) comes to Camp and does what is called 'a swearing in' ceremony. Prior to that day, all the corp members in your camp would have been rehearsing a March-past for him. You will all stand in line, raise up your right hands and repeat a bunch of words after him. After that, you all have been sworn in and are officially Corp members. Your next Parade of significance would be your Passing out Parade (at the end of your one year). 2. Swearing in is normally 1 week from the day the camp starts. Infact, Its noprmally the first weekend after the start of Camp. Takes place atthe Camps Parade ground and all corp members must be present. 3. I cant help you with this one. I picked up my call-up letter from NYSC HQ Abuja. Normally, its given out in schools in Nigeria. It contains rules and regulations that will serve as a guide to you in camp. [/b] |
