The Director General of the NYSC, Brig Gen Shuaibu Ibrahim, has restated that all prospective Corp members would be subjected to compulsory COVID 19 tests as a condition for their admission into the orientation camps across the country.

The NYSC had earlier said that it would commence its three week orientation Programme for Batch ‘B’ Stream II on January 19, 2021 amidst the raging increase of COVID 19 in the country.

The DG assured the prospective Corp members not to worry as the scheme has adopted effective measures to ensure their safety.

The NYSC DG spoke while paying a courtesy call on his counterpart at National Council of Arts and Culture in Abuja, Otunba Olusegun Runsewe in Abuja on Wednesday.

He said that the NYSC would only allow those who are screened and confirmed to the COVID 19 negative into the camps.

He added that those who test positive to the raging virus would be taken away to the isolation centre for proper treatment by the NCDC.
