The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has announced the relocation of the 2026 Batch ‘B’ Stream 1 Orientation Course for Corps Members deployed to Niger State to the FCT Permanent Orientation Camp in Kubwa, Abuja.
The 21-day orientation exercise, scheduled to begin on Tuesday, July 7, 2026, was moved from the NYSC Orientation Camp in Paiko, Niger State, due to ongoing renovation work by the Niger State Government.
According to the Scheme, registration for the orientation course will begin on Tuesday, July 7, 2026 and close at midnight on Thursday, July 9, 2026.
“The Management of National Youth Service Corps has approved Tuesday, 7th July, 2026, as the commencement date for the 2026 Batch ‘B’ Stream 1 Orientation Course for Corps Members deployed to Niger State,” the Scheme said in a statement.
The statement signed by the Scheme’s Director of Information and Public Relations, Caroline Embu, said the relocation was to allow the corps members to complete the orientation programme at the FCT camp in Kubwa.
“Meanwhile, as a result of the ongoing renovation of the Orientation Camp in Paiko, by the Niger State Government, the Orientation Course for Corps Members deployed to Niger would now hold at the NYSC FCT Permanent Orientation Camp in Kubwa, Abuja,” the statement said.
