It is no longer news that the election date has been rescheduled to march 28 and April by INEC due to a reason known to them. But the confusion between NYSC and INEC is something to be worried about. For the first time in history, NYSC officials cannot categorically state when a batch will be passing out because of the MoU between them and INEC. Here I highlight the effect and shed more light on the controversies surrounding the INEC payment.

1. BATCH A, 2014

The official rumour for our passing out is february 12, 2015 while we also heard that after the election, we will be coming back for our certificate by march 2, 2015. I called it rumour because no NYSC official down to the state coordinator is aware of this date except the corps members themselves which is rather too obvious to the fact in discuss. Not only that our official passing out date is unknown, our 13 month allowee is also a point to discuss(that of february and march because that is the tradition yearly).

What are the implication for the new election date?

If we are to go by the rumour of february 12 and march 2(for certificate), how effective when INEC election has been rescheduled to march 28. If NYSC still want the batch A to participate in the election, are they going to pay for April when february and March is not negotiable? if the batch A are to stay till the scheduled date, will they still be going to their PPA's(place of primary assignment) and CDS? If they do, it means NYSC is no longer a year service! If NYSC and INEC should conclude that the batch A should go and come back for the election/certificate, who will be responsible for their transport? Will that be fair enough. And if the participation is now made optional, that is, you collect your certificate now and come back for the exercise "you are no longer under NYSC, as INEC as the right to treat you as other Adhoc staffs" or after wasting your transport back" you are being told your service is no longer needed" who do you protest to? You are on your own.

2. ISSUES ON INEC TRAINING FEE AND PAYMENT

A lot of questions has been raised on the amount INEC is going to pay but let me start from the training fee. INEC training fee is usually N4500 that is, 1500 for 3 days but their is a new development. INEC is usually sponsored by an international body called UNDP, these organization have been the financial backbone of INEC for a very long time on the printing of training manuals, payment of all INEC officials etc but the new gist is, UNDP has reduce their support on only the printing of training manual while INEC take care of the staffs reimbursement. Another fact is that, UNDP usually pay INEC adhoc staffs directly without the involvement of INEC themselves which is now a reversal. In other to cut the story short, there is going to be a 10% reduction in the training fee and a 10% increment in the final payment which means the overall payment is around N22,000 including the training fee according to rumour.

wheather they like it or not, i am going home with my NYSC certificate comes feb12. wishing u same if u so wish.

As for me I'm done, I'm wheeling my boxes home this week. I'm not participating in anything anyways.
But this is tiring, it's not how we anticipated this one year service. All thanks to jega.

If you heard BatchA corps members took to the streets, I started it!!

@kinibigdeal they aren't to pay u for march just feb,so we are to negotiate for march before we can talk of april

this whole thing is really boring

If inec/nysc can pay March / April alawee + accommodation allowance then we can negotiate

This is a real OYO for the Batch A

SHUN VIOLENCE

Wat about does goin I mean the incoming batch A? D supposed to resumed camp on march

Am sure Brig. Johnson will make a statement concerning dat very soon. W will release u ds month as we cn nt afford paying u for additional two months. B'14 and c'14 wil du d job 4 us. Besides ,all d blames shuld b directed to president Jonah,spoiled plans 4 boys because of his own selfish interest. Jst wait n see, w wil MARCH u out of aso rock come MARCH 28th.

@OP, Do you knw what you are talking about? March Allawee must have been paid while in camp. March - Feb make it a 12 month service year/ allowance. NYSC/INEC don't have any other choice than to release u guys after Feb12 and appoint more ad hoc staffs if they want to stage the election. This is a result of their stupid postponement, CONFUSION!

INEC ...confused!
NYSC ...confused!
Corps member... confused!
Nigeria security outfits ...confused!
Media houses ...confused!
Nigerians at large ...confused!

Only Boko Haram isn't confused, if BH is a country, I'd say they are more organised than Nigeria.

I am seriously confuse

What about those who graduated late last year and are yet to serve!!!

Sorry peeps,

Nigeria doesn't care

Baba u don dey vex gan o

Many parents of those guys will be thanking God right now for this great miracle especially those serving in the north east. We truly need the military for maximum security of corpers during elections. Tension in the country was something else before the postponement. There is sense in every nonsense truly. There is blessing too in disappointment.

God bless President GEJ. Politics should not be a do or die game. That we don't support one candidate should not make us enemy.

This is just a Simple Way to waste our Time. Allow us to leave February 12 and start our new life. Some of us have got plans!

una own beta,what of we incoming batch A 15.

I YATA FOR MY COUNTRY 9JA
