<\/p>\n
History- Why was the NYSC scheme established<\/strong><\/h3>\nNYSC was created on the 22nd<\/sup> of May 1973 to serve as an avenue for the reconciliation, reconstruction, and rebuilding of the nation after the then\u00a0civil war. In a bid to encourage and develop common ties among Nigerian youths and promote national unity, the scheme was established based on decree No. 24.<\/p>\nHow the NYSC scheme is operated<\/strong><\/h3>\nGraduates who participate in the National Youth Service Scheme are posted to states other than their state of origin or where they have schooled. In their new place of assignment, they are expected to mix and relate with people from other ethnic groups, social and family backgrounds, and to also learn the culture of the indigenes in the location they are posted to.<\/p>\n
It is hoped that this action will bring about unity in the country and help the youths appreciate other ethnic groups.<\/p>\n
The NYSC scheme begins with an \u2018orientation\u2019 period or camp of approximately three weeks. This takes place in a military-controlled “camp” away from family and friends. It is after this that corp members are posted to their Place of Primary Assignment (PPA). The place of primary assignment can be institutions, organizations and most schools where they are to work just like the full-time staff. Corp members are usually exempted for one working day, devoted to the execution of community development service (CDS). After eleven months of the service year, corp members are allowed one month of vacation before their final passing out ceremony, after which they would be issued certificates of completion.<\/p>\n
The NYSC ANTHEM<\/strong><\/h3>\nYouths obey the clarion call
\nLet us lift our nation high
\nUnder the sun or in the rain
\nWith dedication and selflessness
\nNigeria is ours, Nigeria we serve.<\/p>\n
Members, take the great salute
\nPut the Nation first in all
\nWith service and humility
\nNYSC for the noble youths
\nMake Nigeria a great nation.<\/p>\n
Far and near we come to serve
\nAnd to build our fatherland
\nWith oneness and loyalty
\nNYSC for unity
\nHail Nigeria, our great nation<\/p>\n
Facts about the NYSC Anthem<\/strong><\/h3>\nThe musical composition of the NYSC anthem was written by Frederick Nwosu<\/p>\n
About Frederick Nwosu<\/strong><\/h3>\nDuring his National youth service, he developed and hosted a TV show called \u201cIgbo\u00a0by Television\u201d at the Television Service of\u00a0Oyo\u00a0State (TSOS), Ibadan. He was also a part of the\u00a0NYSC\u00a0Choir. Frederick Nwosu took part in a nationwide\u00a0competition\u00a0to find an Anthem for the\u00a0NYSC. While another Corp member won the competition in regards to the lyrics, he won the music composition.<\/p>\n
The lyrics were rendered with his martial music and he won a national award for that anthem. The award recognition night was at the Sheraton Hotel in\u00a0Ikeja\u00a0Lagos where\u00a0Alhaji\u00a0Bunu\u00a0Sherif\u00a0Musa\u00a0read Frederick\u2019s citation and shook hands with him. This was how his composition won the first position and became the\u00a0NYSC\u00a0Anthem. Many people still remember that the\u00a0NYSC\u00a0Anthem was composed by Frederick\u00a0Nwosu\u00a0while he was serving in Ibadan.<\/p>\n
The motto of The National Youth Service Corps<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n- The Motto of the National Youth Service Corps is \u2018Service and Humility\u2019<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The NYSC Pledge<\/strong><\/h3>\nEvery Corp member is expected to subscribe to the national pledge and sign a copy of both the National pledge and NYSC pledge during the Swearing-in ceremony at the orientation camp.<\/p>\n
Any Corp member who refuses to or fails to subscribe to and sign the National and the NYSC pledges is to be tried by the Camp Court and, if found guilty, be decamped and sent out of the orientation camp.<\/p>\n
Such a corp member will only be allowed to come back for the National Youth Service to join the next batch for the orientation exercise after he or she is ready to subscribe to sign the pledges.<\/p>\n
Eligibility for the National Youth Service Corp Scheme<\/strong><\/h3>\nIn order to be able to participate in the one year service which is compulsory, a graduate must be below the age of 30 years when he graduated from the higher institution. Those who are above 30 years are given a Certificate of Exemption, which is also equivalent to the NYSC Discharge Certificate.<\/p>\n
A person who graduated before the age of 30 but skipped the service year at the time, will still be eligible to serve at any time he wants, (even at the age of 60) since his certificate of graduation reads that he graduated before became 30 years old.<\/p>\n
The sense in which NYSC is compulsory is that the graduates of the country can’t request for exemption by themselves or on the basis of not just feeling like or wanting to serve unless for these conditions:<\/p>\n
\n- If one suffers any form of physical disability<\/li>\n
- If one has served in the\u00a0military\u00a0or\u00a0paramilitary\u00a0for a period of more than one year<\/li>\n
- If one has exceeded the age of 30 years when they graduated<\/li>\n
- Part-time graduates (CEP) are eligible to an exclusion Letter since they’re not allowed to serve. Most times, employers do not agree to employ graduates in possession of an exclusion letter because an Exclusion letter is deemed less than the Discharge Certificate and the Certificate of Exemption.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
