This was contained in a statement signed by the Director, Press and Public Relations of the NYSC, Eddy Megwa.
According to the statement, redeployment, mobilisation and deployment of corps members were all free of charge in accordance with the deployment and relocation policies of the scheme.
The scheme, therefore, urged corps members and their institutions to report any infractions against the policies to NYSC formations across the country, its National Directorate Headquarters in Abuja, or any other security agencies, for prompt action.
The statement read, “The management of the National Youth Service Corps wishes to reiterate that Deployment and Relocation of Prospective Corps Members, as well as Corps Members, are carried out free of charge, and in accordance with the Deployment and Relocation policies of the Scheme.
“Accordingly, Relocation of Corps Members is effected on individual merit, in line with the laid down policy.
“In addition, mobilisation of Prospective Corps Members for national service is free of charge, as Corps Producing Institutions do not pay for that.
“Any infraction on the above policies should be reported to the Heads of the nearest NYSC formations nationwide, NYSC National Directorate Headquarters Abuja, and or the security agencies for prompt action.”
