The NYSC Director of Press, Mrs. Bose Aderibigbe, made the announcement in a press statement released in Abuja on Monday.
The NYSC press release stated that the decision not to mobilise those graduates still on housemanship was part of the 14-point resolution reached on Thursday, 18th December, 2014 during a Pre-Mobilisation Workshop, held in Abuja with the theme ‘Deepening the Credibility of NYSC Mobilisation Process through ICT."
The Director General of the NYSC, Brigadier General, Johnson Olawumi said to ease the problem associated with exclusion of graduates of affiliated institutions from mobilization for service, parent institutions in the resolution were advised to carry along the affiliated Institutions and ensure that names of the graduates were not expunged from Senate/Academic Board Approved result lists submitted to the NYSC.
"Relatedly, all Matriculation numbers that were assigned to graduates, but found to be invalid should be brought to the attention of the Registrar JAMB for verification.”
"To guard against the bottlenecks associated with the delivery of Exemption Certificates to Corps Producing Institutions, the old system of delivering simultaneously the Call-up Letters and Exemption Certificates to Corps Producing Institutions has been restored.”
Meanwhile, the scheme noted an abuse of the newly introduced ICT by unqualified prospective corps members who illegally registered on-line, stressing that the NYSC portal, as a result, would no longer be opened until Senate/academic board approved result lists are up-loaded.
"Accordingly, Students Affairs Officers have been advised to educate their students on the implication of registering on-line by proxy as anyone caught henceforth in that act would not be registered in the camp, and the action would be seen as a criminal act."
The statement further stated that from the 2015 Batch ‘A’ Service Year, mobilisation of prospective corps members would be effected on the basis of quota-carrying capacity of each institution as approved by the respective regulatory bodies.
The statement also revealed that the conference also agreed that conscious efforts should be made to carry out more sensitization on the online registration at the various corps producing institutions. This they said will readily offer full understanding, workability as well as acceptability of the online package to the students who are the direct beneficiaries of the programme.
Some of the stakeholders present at the conference are, the Director-General, NYSC, Brig. Gen. Johnson Olawunmi, The Registrar JAMB, Prof. Ojerinde, Representative of the Executive Secretary NUC, Students Affairs Officers among other stakeholders.
