The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has said the Certificate of National Service (CNS) will be issued to qualified corps members, who are passing out on May 28, at local government councils.

Customarily the certificates are to be shared during the passing out parade of corps members at state headquarters.

But in a statement by the spokesperson of corps on Monday, Adenike Adeyemi, she said the event shall be devoid of NYSC ceremonial parade as a result of the threat and danger posed by coronavirus.

“As a precautionary measure, the distribution shall be staggered for a period of ten days in the first instance, in order to remove anxiety from the concerned NYSC Members, in addition to making the activity seamless and less cumbersome,” she said.

“It is imperative to state that Corps Members who at present are not in their state of service need not violate the ban on inter-state journeys which is still in force,” she said.

According to her, as soon as the ban is lifted and it is safe to travel, they are expected to go to their respective states of service to collect their CNS.

She said the management congratulates the 2019 Batch “B” Stream 1 corps members for the successful completion of the service, which is a major milestone.

“Dear Corps Members, as you go for your CNS from Thursday, 28th May, remember to ensure the strictest observance of discipline; anchored on orderliness, adherence to instructions, added to the rules of social/physical distancing, use of facemask, hand sanitiser and proper washing of the hands with liquid soap for at least twenty seconds during the activity,” she said.
