NYSC Directs Married Female Corps Members to Seek Redeployment, Releases Batch ‘B’ Stream 2 Call-Up Letters
The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has issued a directive advising married female corps members who have been posted to states other than where their husbands reside to apply for redeployment.
This information was shared through an announcement on the official X handle of the NYSC on Monday.
According to the statement, married female corps members are eligible to request a change in their deployment location to align with their husband’s state of residence.
To do this, they must present valid documentation proving their marital status, along with other required documents, at the nearest NYSC Orientation Camp during the registration process.
Once the redeployment request has been processed and approved, the new posting will be updated on the corps members’ dashboard, where they can access and reprint their call-up letters.
In a related announcement, the NYSC also informed the public that the call-up letters for the 2024 Batch ‘B’ Stream II prospective corps members have been officially released as of Monday.
Prospective corps members are advised to log into the NYSC portal to download and print their letters ahead of the orientation exercise.
Benue State Governor Hyacinth Alia has assured that the state is ready to handle any potential flooding from the release of water from Cameroon’s Lagdo Dam. After meeting with President Bola Tinubu, Alia stressed that while they hope the flood won’t happen, they are well-prepared. He noted that the state is focusing on prevention, such as river dredging, and is actively informing residents about flood risks.
The upcoming release of water from the dam has raised concerns, especially after recent severe floods in Borno State. Alia emphasized that his administration is taking proactive steps and is working with emergency teams to manage any challenges. He also defended the transparency of his local government nominations, encouraging candidates to accept the outcomes of the October 5 elections.
The Nigeria Hydrological Services Agency (NIHSA) has alerted Nigerians residing in flood-prone areas to relocate, following the release of water from Cameroon’s Lagdo Dam into River Niger and River Benue.
The release, which began on September 18, 2024, poses flood risks to 11 states, including Adamawa, Kogi, Benue, and Bayelsa.
NIHSA urges individuals to clear drainages and avoid floodplains. This comes days after severe flooding in Borno killed over 30 people.
Israel admitted to initiating a “new era” of war after two consecutive days of explosive attacks targeting Hezbollah in Lebanon.
On Tuesday, pager explosions killed several, including children, and wounded over 2,800. A second wave on Wednesday, involving walkie-talkies and phones, killed at least 20 and injured 450.
One explosion occurred during a Hezbollah funeral, with reports suggesting Hezbollah’s elite Radwan unit was heavily impacted. Israel believes the death toll is higher than officially reported.
