										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has officially released the call-up letters for the 2026 Batch ‘A’ Stream II. This significant announcement comes as prospective corps members prepare for their upcoming orientation, which is set to begin on <strong>April 22, 2026</strong>.</p>
<p>Many eager candidates are currently checking their call-up letters on the NYSC portal. However, users have reported slow access due to heavy traffic—an expected issue given the high volume of applicants. The registration and reception of corps members will also open on the same day.</p>
<p>The swearing-in ceremony is scheduled for <strong>April 24, 2026</strong>, marking a pivotal moment in the mobilization process. Following this, the full orientation course will continue until <strong>May 12, 2026</strong>. This development signals the final stage of preparation for thousands of graduates set to begin Nigeria’s mandatory one-year national service.</p>
<p>But why does this matter? The release of call-up letters represents not just a formality; it is a crucial step that determines where each candidate will serve. Each letter contains essential details such as state of deployment, orientation camp address, reporting date, and call-up number.</p>
<p>Prospective corps members are advised to prioritize safety while traveling to their assigned orientation camps. Notably, they should break their journeys once it’s <strong>6:00 pm</strong> and continue the following morning—a precautionary measure that aims to ensure safe travel.</p>
<p>It’s important to highlight that failure to report on time could lead to disqualification or even postponement to a later batch. This underscores the urgency and significance of adhering to these timelines.</p>
<p>The release comes days after NYSC announced the timetable for the orientation exercise, emphasizing how close we are to the start of this important phase in many graduates&#8217; lives.</p>
<p>As anticipation builds among prospective corps members, reactions vary widely. Some express excitement about starting this new chapter, while others voice concerns over logistics and safety during travel.</p>
<p>This situation is evolving quickly—details remain unconfirmed as more information comes in from various sources. For now, candidates should stay informed and prepared as they embark on this journey.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN) has long faced challenges regarding its graduates&#8217; eligibility for the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC). Historically, this exclusion stemmed from a policy reflecting NOUN&#8217;s past student profile—primarily working professionals who were often above the service age limit. But that context matters because the demographics at NOUN have shifted significantly in recent years.</p>
<p>As of now, many of NOUN&#8217;s graduates are under 30 years old. This change raises an important question: Shouldn&#8217;t these younger graduates be afforded the same opportunities as their peers from traditional universities? Recent developments suggest that the answer may soon be a resounding yes.</p>
<p>On April 19, 2026, Abdullahi Ribadu, the executive secretary of the National Universities Commission (NUC), announced plans to review this exclusion. &#8220;I want to assure you, at NUC, we will engage with NYSC to see what policy changes can be made in order for NOUN graduates to be accommodated, because the dynamics have changed,&#8221; he stated. This statement marks a pivotal moment for thousands of students who have felt sidelined.</p>
<p>Oba Ewuare II, chancellor of NOUN, has also voiced strong support for these changes. He emphasized that equity and justice demand that no graduate from a duly recognized Nigerian university should suffer disadvantage due to their mode of education. His remarks resonate deeply with many who believe that all forms of education should lead to equal opportunities.</p>
<p>At NOUN&#8217;s recent 15th convocation, a total of 24,575 graduands were celebrated. Among them were 17,474 undergraduate degrees awarded, alongside 1,788 postgraduate diplomas and 5,282 master&#8217;s degrees. Such numbers illustrate not just a growing institution but also a burgeoning pool of talent ready to contribute to society.</p>
<p>Yet there is still work to be done. The NUC plans to engage with NYSC leadership to re-evaluate the mobilization framework specifically for NOUN graduates. This initiative aims to remove existing impediments preventing eligible students from participating in NYSC.</p>
<p>Furthermore, President Bola Tinubu has expressed his support for including NOUN graduates in the NYSC scheme—a move that could potentially reshape perceptions about open universities in Nigeria. Such backing from high-level officials suggests that change is not just possible but likely.</p>
<p>NOUN’s research enterprise has recorded remarkable progress recently—reflecting a commitment to scholarly excellence and global competitiveness. This evolution further strengthens the argument for inclusivity within national service programs.</p>
<p>In summary, as discussions continue and policies are re-evaluated, it appears that the tide may finally be turning in favor of NOUN graduates seeking NYSC eligibility. Observers remain hopeful about what lies ahead for these students and their contributions to Nigeria&#8217;s future.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Reaction from the field</h2>
<p>The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has recently released call-up numbers for the 2026 Batch A Stream II prospective corps members, marking a significant milestone in the registration process. This release is crucial as it directly affects the readiness and planning of thousands of young Nigerians who are preparing to embark on this national service journey. The call-up numbers are determined based on the order of registration, ensuring a systematic approach to the selection process.</p>
<p>Prospective corps members can conveniently check their call-up numbers on the NYSC portal dashboard. This online access is part of the NYSC&#8217;s efforts to streamline the registration process and maintain accurate records for all corps members. The emphasis on digital solutions reflects a broader trend towards modernization in administrative processes, which is vital for managing the large influx of candidates each year.</p>
<p>In addition to the initial call-up numbers, the NYSC has announced a supplementary online registration period for new corps members, scheduled from April 9 to April 11, 2026. This supplementary registration is specifically for candidates whose details were recently uploaded to the NYSC portal. It is essential for these candidates to adhere strictly to the registration timeline to avoid disqualification, highlighting the importance of timely action in the registration process.</p>
<p>NYSC officials have reiterated that all registration must be conducted through the official NYSC portal, emphasizing the need for prospective corps members to be vigilant against potential scams or unofficial channels. This caution is particularly relevant in an era where digital fraud is increasingly common, and the integrity of the registration process is paramount.</p>
<p>The NYSC program was originally designed as a bridge for national integration and youth development, fostering a sense of unity among Nigeria&#8217;s diverse population. As the program evolves, the NYSC aims to enhance its operational efficiency and ensure that all corps members have a smooth transition into their service year.</p>
<p>In terms of financial implications, prospective corps members are required to pay a registration fee of ₦16,000. This fee is an essential aspect of the registration process, but it also raises questions about the financial burden on candidates, especially those from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. The impact of additional charges on these individuals remains unclear, as many are already navigating the costs associated with their education and future employment.</p>
<p>Details remain unconfirmed regarding whether more call-up numbers will appear later, which could affect candidates who are still awaiting their turn in the registration order. As the registration period progresses, prospective corps members are advised to stay informed and check the NYSC portal regularly for updates.</p>
<p>As the NYSC continues to adapt to the needs of its candidates, the upcoming weeks will be critical in shaping the experiences of the 2026 Batch A Stream II corps members. With the supplementary registration on the horizon and the ongoing release of call-up numbers, the anticipation among prospective corps members is palpable, as they prepare for this pivotal moment in their lives.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>NYSC Participation Cleared</h2>
<p>The Legal Practitioners Disciplinary Committee (LPDC) has dismissed a petition against Benjamin Kalu regarding his participation in the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) while attending the Nigerian Law School. The ruling, referenced as BB/LPDC/1954/2026, concluded that no prima facie case was established against Kalu.</p>
<p>The complaint was filed by John Aikpokpo Martins, who alleged that Kalu&#8217;s dual participation in the NYSC and law school violated the NYSC Act. However, the LPDC stated that the allegations fell outside its jurisdiction, emphasizing that it cannot interrogate the operations of the Nigerian Law School or the NYSC.</p>
<p>In its findings, the LPDC panel, which included Umeh Kalu, a senior advocate of Nigeria, noted that the complaint was fundamentally flawed both procedurally and substantively. The ruling highlighted that Kalu was called to the bar on September 6, 2011, and was enrolled on the roll of legal practitioners at the Supreme Court on October 5, 2011.</p>
<p>In addressing the allegations, the LPDC remarked, &#8220;No prima facie case is established,&#8221; reinforcing its decision to dismiss the petition. The committee&#8217;s mandate is to regulate the professional conduct of legal practitioners, and it found no basis for the complaint against Kalu.</p>
<p>This ruling is significant as it clarifies the boundaries of the LPDC&#8217;s authority and its role in matters related to the NYSC and legal education in Nigeria. The dismissal of the petition also reflects the challenges faced by legal practitioners in navigating the complexities of dual obligations in their professional training.</p>
<p>As the legal community observes the implications of this ruling, it remains to be seen how such decisions will influence future cases involving the NYSC and legal education. Details remain unconfirmed regarding any further actions that may be taken by the complainant or other stakeholders in this matter.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Clarification on Mobilization Responsibilities</h2>
<p>The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has stated that it is not responsible for the non-mobilization of Higher National Diploma (HND) graduates for the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC). This announcement comes amid ongoing concerns from polytechnic graduates regarding their eligibility for the NYSC.</p>
<p>According to Prof. Is-haq Oloyede, the JAMB registrar, &#8220;The Board is not responsible for admitting HND students into polytechnics and, therefore, has no data to facilitate their entry into the NYSC scheme.&#8221; This clarification underscores the distinction between JAMB&#8217;s role in managing admissions into tertiary institutions and the responsibilities of polytechnics.</p>
<p>JAMB conducts entrance examinations and manages admissions through its Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS), while polytechnics are tasked with admitting students into HND programs. Eligibility for mobilization into the NYSC is determined by relevant authorities, not by JAMB.</p>
<p>There have been longstanding complaints by polytechnic graduates over difficulties with NYSC mobilization for HND holders. Some polytechnics have reportedly conducted illegal admissions, leading to discrepancies in records that complicate the mobilization process.</p>
<p>In related news, JAMB has reported a total of 2,243,816 candidates registered for the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME). This figure includes 321,814 registrants from Lagos, 303,498 from Kaduna, and 302,963 from the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.</p>
<p>JAMB has also remitted ₦1.57 billion to accredited Computer-Based Test (CBT) centres for the 2026 UTME registration exercise. The registration service charge for UTME is set at ₦700 per candidate, although some CBT operators have expressed concerns that this fee no longer reflects the actual cost of delivering the service.</p>
<p>Prof. Oloyede emphasized the importance of following proper processes, stating, &#8220;If institutions follow the proper process, there would be no problem. On our part, we will continue to render quality service beneficial to all stakeholders. Let’s do things properly.&#8221;</p>
<p>Looking ahead, JAMB has projected an internally generated revenue of ₦23.8 billion for 2026, an increase of ₦4 billion from the previous year&#8217;s target. The Board has also created 1,000 examination centres for the upcoming UTME.</p>
<p>Details remain unconfirmed regarding the specific measures that will be taken to address the mobilization issues faced by HND graduates. Observers are keenly watching how these developments will unfold in the coming months.</p>

<p>The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has stated that it is not responsible for the non-mobilization of Higher National Diploma (HND) graduates for the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC). This announcement comes amid ongoing complaints from polytechnic graduates regarding their difficulties in the mobilization process.</p>

<p>JAMB primarily conducts entrance examinations and manages admissions into tertiary institutions through its Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS). It does not admit candidates into HND programmes, which are the responsibility of individual polytechnics.</p>
<p>There have been longstanding complaints by polytechnic graduates over difficulties with NYSC mobilization for HND holders. Some polytechnics have reportedly conducted illegal admissions, leading to discrepancies in records that complicate the mobilization process.</p>
<p>In the recent 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), JAMB registered a total of 2,243,816 candidates, with significant numbers from various states, including 321,814 from Lagos and 303,498 from Kaduna. JAMB has also created 1,000 examination centres for the 2026 UTME.</p>
<p>Furthermore, JAMB remitted ₦1.57 billion to accredited Computer-Based Test (CBT) centres for the registration exercise, with a service charge of ₦700 per candidate. However, CBT operators have expressed concerns that this fee no longer reflects the actual cost of delivering the service, citing rising costs of diesel and internet.</p>
<p>Prof. Oloyede emphasized the importance of proper processes in admissions, stating, &#8220;If institutions follow the proper process, there would be no problem. On our part, we will continue to render quality service beneficial to all stakeholders. Let’s do things properly.&#8221;</p>
<p>As JAMB continues to navigate these challenges, observers are keenly watching how the situation will evolve, particularly regarding the mobilization of HND graduates for the NYSC. Details remain unconfirmed regarding any potential changes or interventions that may be implemented to address these ongoing issues.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Background on JAMB and HND Graduates</h2>
<p>Many HND graduates have encountered barriers to NYSC mobilisation due to irregularities in admission processes. The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has been at the forefront of managing admissions for various educational programs in Nigeria, but its responsibilities do not extend to Higher National Diploma (HND) admissions.</p>
<h2>Clarification from JAMB</h2>
<p>In a recent statement, Prof. Is-haq Oloyede, the Registrar of JAMB, emphasized that the board is not responsible for admitting HND students into polytechnics and, therefore, has no data to facilitate their entry into the NYSC scheme. He stated, &#8220;The Board is not responsible for admitting HND students into polytechnics and, therefore, has no data to facilitate their entry into the NYSC scheme.&#8221; This clarification comes amidst growing concerns among HND graduates regarding their eligibility for the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC).</p>
<h2>JAMB&#8217;s Mandate and Operations</h2>
<p>Prof. Oloyede further explained that JAMB&#8217;s mandate is limited to first-degree, National Diploma, and Nigerian Certificate in Education programmes. The board conducts admissions through its automated Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS), which automates the admissions process into tertiary institutions, addresses challenges associated with the manual approach, and empowers candidates with information on available institutions and programmes.</p>
<h2>Recent Financial Developments</h2>
<p>In terms of financial operations, JAMB remitted a total of N1.57 billion to Computer-Based Testing (CBT) centres for services rendered during the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) registration. The registration for the UTME closed on February 26, 2026, without any extension, and candidates were not required to pay separate registration fees at CBT centres, as the ePIN includes the registration charge.</p>
<h2>New Policies to Ensure Compliance</h2>
<p>To enhance compliance and curb registration infractions, JAMB introduced the &#8216;No View, No Pay&#8217; policy. Payments to CBT centres are withheld if registration activities cannot be monitored remotely by JAMB. This policy aims to ensure that all registration processes are transparent and accountable. As stated by an official, &#8220;Payment is only effected after the centre rectifies the anomaly and its activities can be viewed from the Board’s headquarters in Abuja.&#8221;</p>
<h2>Looking Ahead</h2>
<p>As the situation evolves, observers are keenly watching how JAMB will address the challenges faced by HND graduates in relation to NYSC mobilization. Prof. Oloyede has urged stakeholders to &#8220;Let’s do things properly,&#8221; indicating a commitment to improving the admissions process and ensuring that all candidates receive fair treatment.</p>
<p>While JAMB continues to play a pivotal role in the admissions landscape of Nigeria, the board&#8217;s limitations regarding HND admissions remain a significant concern for many graduates. Details remain unconfirmed regarding any potential changes to these policies or the impact on HND graduates seeking NYSC mobilization.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Introduction</h2>
<p>The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) is an integral program in Nigeria aimed at fostering national unity and development among Nigerian graduates. Established in 1973, the NYSC is mandatory for all graduates under the age of 30, and it seeks to expose young people to the challenges of nation-building while promoting peace and mutual understanding across diverse ethnic groups. In a country with a history of division and conflict, the NYSC serves as a platform for social integration and personal development, making it a relevant topic for discussion today.</p>
<h2>Recent Developments in NYSC</h2>
<p>In recent months, the NYSC has faced various challenges and developments that highlight its importance in contemporary Nigeria. Recently, the NYSC management announced that it would expand its orientation programs to include more entrepreneurial training sessions. This move is aimed at addressing the high unemployment rate among Nigerian youths, as many corps members struggle to find jobs post-service. Additionally, the NYSC has been working on improving its health and safety protocols in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, ensuring that corps members can serve their country while staying safe.</p>
<p>Moreover, with the increase in reports regarding the welfare of corps members, the NYSC has committed to enhancing the accommodations and amenities provided at orientation camps. This response comes after widespread feedback highlighting the challenges faced by corps members during their service year, including inadequate living conditions and security risks in certain areas.</p>
<h2>Challenges Facing NYSC</h2>
<p>Despite its achievements, the NYSC is not without challenges. One major issue is the perception of the program, as some Nigerians question the relevance of compulsory service in today&#8217;s context. Critics argue that the national integration objectives could be achieved without mandatory service. Additionally, there is an ongoing discourse on the safety of corps members, particularly with reports of insecurity in various regions, raising concerns about their safety and wellbeing during service.</p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>The NYSC remains a significant institution in Nigeria, primarily as it continues to evolve to meet the demands of a changing society. The introduction of entrepreneurial programs and improvements in corps members&#8217; welfare reflects its commitment to fostering a generation of young leaders equipped to contribute positively to nation-building. As Nigeria navigates its socio-economic and political challenges, the NYSC&#8217;s role in shaping the future of youth and promoting unity will undoubtedly remain crucial. Observing NYSC&#8217;s adaptations and responses to these challenges will be essential for understanding its future relevance and impact on Nigerian society.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Introduction</h2>
<p>The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) is a critical program in Nigeria aimed at fostering unity and development through youth participation. Established in 1973, the program mandates that all Nigerian graduates under the age of 30 serve their country for a year.
