Otondos, wishing you safe journey to your various destinations. These information will be useful for you.

Camp arrival and check in : I would advise u to arrive to camp early, so as to get a better accomodation, also to avoid long and stressful queueing during registration after a tedious
journey and to get a fitted or a fairly fitted kits (many
will get extra large). on arrival, u will be searched by
some friendly officers, then you proceed for
accomodation registration, after getting your hostel,
locate a suitable territory for your bed location, keep
your luggages on it ( remove cash, atm, phones and
other valuable items). then speedily go and get your bed
at the store; after collecting your bed, take it to ur hostel and proceed for call up letter clarification and other registration in
phases.

Camp Officials: These include the state coord, rep of d DG, camp coord, PRO, head of lectures and other staff of NYSC.
my advice: dont insult any camp officials no matter how
small or menial they look, they might turn to be your lga
inspector or zonal inspector after camp; for example, my
own lga inspector was in the kitchen serving food during camp.

Groups in camp: There are various groups i would advice
you to join.
1. OBS- This is the camp's radio station with an off range broadband (lol). orientation braoadcasting service oversees the passage of information/announcement, entertainment,
public address system, sport commentary during
matches, event organizer, news broadcasting and public
relations.although its for everyone, but to avoid eviction
i advise that if you are an entertainer, communicator,
engineer ( majorly electrical), musician, comedian, studio
technicals, commentators, you can join this group.

2. Camp Band: these are those that engage in military
parade entertainment, devotional praises with drums,
trumpet, saxophone, biggle. they also engage in blowing
the biggle ( its like trumpet) for light out and conveyance
to d parade ground. ( everybody knows the biggle man
and trust me, na nysc pikin be d biggle man). if you can
sing, energetic enough to stand for a long while, could
play instruments ( wind and percussion instrument), you
can join this group. there is a great reward for joining.

3. Camp court: if you are a legal personnel, this is d group
you must join. they oversee the legal activities of the
camp. they issue punitive measures to undisciplined corp
member based on the nysc bye laws ( abeg make una no
face camp court oo, even jail dey camp ooo). lawyers,
dont let corp members know u are in camp court ooo...
(joking)

4. Medical experts and red cross: This consist of
medicine and surgery graduates, nursing and science
laboratory technologist. you must always be in the camp
clinic for emergencies and treatment of ailing corp
member. your own parade ground is the clinic. anyone can join the red cross.

5.Other groups include social committee, sport
committee, SAED committee. joining some of these
committees might not yield a good result. i am a victim
of sport committee, even though it was fun and an added
knowledge.

Platoon Activities: platoon means a 'small group of
soldiers'. The last number on your state code
automatically fixes you in a platoon. e.g state code 1214
will be in platoon 4, code 0320 will be in platoon 10,
code 2381 will be in platoon 1. A platoon officer ( nysc
official), platoon commandant and assistant (2 army), a
man o' war, platoon leader and assistant ( 2 corp
members)

a. Platoon leader-He/she will carry out the leadership
responsibility in the platoon as designated by superior
platoo officers listed above. Guy! please rush in for this
position; though stressful a bit, but its an hot cake if you
are effective. most especially when u win trophies for
your platoon. LOOKING FORWARD TO SEE MANY PLATOON LEADERS EMANATES ON THIS PLATFORM FROM ALL ACCROSS THE CAMPS IN NIGERIA.

b. Platoons challenge- Several competitions will hold at
the camp, which include, sport (football, volleyball),
drama, macho man,dance (mostly cultural dance of your
posting state), beauty paegent, comedy, talks, parade and
some other social activities. Your engagement in these
activities and yielding remarkable result for your platoon
might lead to a favourable PPA posting. Its really fun
guys. Nairalanders dont carry last oooo

Camp Supplies: You will be provided with a bed space
( first come first serve) and a mat-looking bed (na joke
ooo!), a meal ticket ( trust some of the 'Jagunlabis' who
ate more than 2 plates with one card). You will be given
a complete kits in which many of u might not get a fitted
size. ( try and exchange with others who needs yours and
you need theirs OR beg the officer in charge). Also, there
is a consistent and uninterrupted water and electricity
supply (no charging points in d hostels ).

Camp Market: popularly called 'maamy' . many market
sellers are waiting for you to patronize them,ranging
from food sellers ( state local meal, indomie, fried foods
like akara), tailors, phone charging spots, consumables,
plates, socks and underwears, dry cleaners, viewing
centers e.t.c. things are very expensive in camp. Also try
and visit the federal market (nccf) for cheaper things.

Religious activities: you are at immunity to practise your
religion as far as it does not interrupt with camp rules.
My Advise: many lives might be ruined in camp and many
lives will be equipped, its an avenue for you to draw
closer to God. Activities will almost take you away from
your spiritual devotions but Nigeria christian corpers
fellowship and muslim corpers fellowship are there for
you. both fellowships will withdraw cash for you ( u might run
out of cash), charge your phones and couselling. all for
free!
NCCF will impact your life through their daily worship and
word filled service and engages in spiritual counselling
and welfarism. MCAN makes sure u engage in your 5 times daily prayers uninterruptedly.

Expect more info later. 21 days in a confined territory
away from the real world is once in a life time. two
things are involved, its either you are equipped or
destroyed. I am trusting God for your lives that after 21
days, you will come out smiling and not soberly, with a
testimony and not with regrets. Have a fulfilled stay.
