The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has postponed the 2026 Batch ‘B’ Stream I Orientation Course for prospective corps members deployed to Niger State following ongoing renovation works at the state orientation camp in Paiko.
The development was announced in a statement by the NYSC Director of Information and Public Relations, Caroline Embu.
According to the statement, the postponement became necessary due to extensive damage caused by a recent windstorm at the Paiko orientation camp, which is currently undergoing rehabilitation by the Niger State Government.
