The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has suspended the 2026 Batch B Stream I Orientation Course for prospective corps members deployed to Niger State due to ongoing renovation work at the state’s orientation camp.
The development was announced in a notice shared on the scheme’s official X account on Sunday.
According to the statement, “This is to notify the General Public and Prospective Corps Members (PCMs) deployed to Niger State for the 2026 Batch B Stream I Orientation Course that their Orientation Course Exercise is suspended for now due to ongoing renovation work at the Orientation Camp.”
The NYSC assured affected corps members that fresh arrangements would be communicated in due course.
“PCMs affected should note that they will be contacted at a short notice on where and when to report for their Orientation Course,” the statement added.
The scheme also apologised for the disruption, stating that, “The Management regrets all inconveniences to the affected PCMs and their parents.”
The suspension comes months after a severe windstorm damaged critical facilities at the NYSC orientation camp in Paiko, Paikoro Local Government Area of Niger State. The incident affected several structures, including male hostels, the multipurpose hall, kitchen and staff quarters, prompting the state government to commence rehabilitation works.
The 2026 Batch B Stream I Orientation Course began nationwide on June 10 and is scheduled to end on June 30.
However, prospective corps members posted to Niger State will now await further directives from the NYSC regarding a new reporting date and venue.
