NYSC (4).webp
The Digest:

The National Youth Service Corps has announced a one-week remobilisation window for corps members who absconded during their service year, requiring them to refund any monthly allowances received before they can rejoin.

Key Points:
  • NYSC will open its remobilisation portal from December 16 to 23, 2025, for corps members who absconded.
  • The scheme mandates that affected members who received monthly allowances must refund the money via the official NYSC dashboard.
  • Corps members who registered for the previous Batch ‘B’ remobilisation but did not complete documentation must reapply.
  • The announcement coincides with the deployment of 2025 Batch ‘C’ corps members, some of whom will undergo orientation in states neighbouring their posting (e.g., Lagos postings to Ekiti, Kwara, Ogun).
  • Online registration for Batch ‘C’ general mobilisation closed on November 9, 2025.
  • The remobilisation exercise is a specific corrective measure for those who left service without authorization.
  • NYSC management urged strict compliance with the guidelines and timeline.
This policy highlights the scheme's efforts to enforce discipline while providing a structured opportunity for redress and completion of national service.
