NYSC Officially Releases Call-Up Letters for 2026 Batch B Stream I

The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has officially released the call-up letters for prospective corps members (PCMs) in the 2026 Batch B Stream I exercise. The scheme also issued a stern warning against night travel to orientation camps. The announcement was made on Monday, June 8, 2026, via the NYSC’s official channels. Prospective corps members are now able to log into the NYSC portal to check their state of deployment and print their call-up letters ahead of the orientation course.

The NYSC announced that some prospective corps members deployed to Lagos State will undertake their orientation course in camps located in Ekiti, Kwara, Ondo, Ogun, and Osun states. Similarly, some corps members posted to the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) will have their orientation exercise in Benue, Nasarawa, Kogi, Kano, and Kaduna states.

The 2026 Batch B Stream I Orientation Course is scheduled to commence on Wednesday, June 10, 2026, and will run until Tuesday, June 30, 2026. Registration and verification of prospective corps members will begin on Wednesday, June 10, and close at midnight on Friday, June 12, 2026. The swearing-in ceremony will take place on Friday, June 12, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. across all orientation camps nationwide. Prospective corps members are advised to note that registration portals and physical documentation at camps will close strictly at midnight on Friday, June 12, 2026. Failure to register before this deadline may result in forfeiture of participation in this stream.

The NYSC Osun State has announced that it is set to host the 2026 Batch B Stream I Orientation course at the NYSC permanent orientation camp, Ede. The swearing-in ceremony will be presided over by the Executive Governor of Osun State, Senator Ademola Adeleke, while the Chief Judge of Osun State, Hon. Justice Oyebola Adepele Ojo, will administer the National Pledge and NYSC Oath of Allegiance on the prospective corps members. The scheme also called on the people of the state, especially the NURTW, to assist prospective corps members in locating the orientation camp with ease.

The NYSC reiterated its warning against night travel for prospective corps members heading to orientation camps. The scheme advised corps members to break their journeys by 6:00 p.m. and seek accommodation at designated safe locations such as corps lodges, military formations, police stations, or traditional rulers’ palaces before continuing their trips the following morning.

The NYSC outlined several critical guidelines for prospective corps members ahead of camp registration. The scheme warned that prospective corps members whose dates of graduation on their call-up letters differ from those on their statements of results will not be registered at the orientation camps. Affected candidates were advised to resolve such discrepancies through their Student Affairs Officers (SAOs) before reporting for camp. The NYSC also directed prospective corps members whose names on their certificates or statements of results do not exactly match the names uploaded on the NYSC portal to contact their institutions and ensure the records are properly aligned before proceeding to camp. Additionally, the scheme outlined the procedure for correcting dates of birth on its portal. Affected corps members are required to obtain a 19- or 20-digit WAEC verification pin, complete their registration, log in to their dashboard, access the date-of-birth correction link, enter the required examination details, verify the information and submit the request.
