The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has scheduled Thursday, December 18, 2025, as the passing-out date for Corps Members of the 2024 Batch C, Stream II.
In a statement released on Tuesday and signed by the NYSC Director of Information and Public Relations, Caroline Embu, the management announced that a low-key ceremony will be held, during which Certificates of National Service will be distributed to qualifying Corps Members across all local government areas nationwide.
The NYSC also stated that pre-event activities will include Job Advisory and Counselling sessions organized by the Corps in collaboration with partner agencies, as well as the signing of final clearance forms by Zonal Inspectors.
“The NYSC Director-General, Brigadier General Olakunle Nafiu, wishes the Corps Members a successful winding-up and passing-out exercise.
“He also urged them to allow the core values of the Scheme guide them in their post-service relationships as good ambassadors of NYSC,” the statement read.
NYSC is a programme established by the Nigerian government in 1973 to promote national unity, integration, and development.
It is a one-year mandatory service for Nigerian graduates under the age of 30, which includes a three-week orientation camp, a primary assignment phase, and a community development service period.
The three-week training introduced corps members to paramilitary drills, leadership development, entrepreneurship training under the Skills Acquisition and Entrepreneurship Development programme, and community integration.
Following the orientation, the corps members were posted to their various Places of Primary Assignment where they served in education, health, agriculture, and other critical sectors, contributing to community development across the country.
