Relocation and redeployment of corp members is a thing that is open to any corp member that is willing to take it. NYSC has made it in such a way that if any prospective corp member has genuine reasons why he/she should not serve in the state they have been posted to, such corper has the right to request for a change of state. And that’s exactly what is called “NYSC Redeployment/Relocation”. But mind you, such reasons must be genuine and reasonable.
The original intention for the creation of NYSC is that youths may move out entirely from their cultural environment to mix with people of other cultural heritage. But youths of today wants to serve in their own desired state. Therefore they are now fond of forming different lies and assumptions. Because of this, NYSC had made redeployment possible only on 3 conditions.
To be approved for NYSC relocation here are the three conditions. Of course you need only one of them to qualify for NYSC redeployment.
Medical Ground:
If as a corps member, you are having medical problem that could pose a threat to your life in the environment you have been posted, you have the right to apply for redeployment based on medical ground. But the medical issues must be a reasonable and to some extent, life threatening before your application can be considered. “You can not say you don’t want to be posted to the north because you do have menstrual pain“. Nobody will listen to you. And mind you, you are still going to face an interview before approval of your application.
If the medical reason is genuine, all you will need to apply are:
- A genuine medical report/certificate from your institution’s medical center or from a recognized general hospital (report or certificate from private hospitals may not be considered).
- A hand-written application letter (you are going to see a sample of this at the end of this post)
- A relocation form which is going to be given to you on camp
Marital Ground:
- Your marriage certificate
- Evidence of change of name in any of the National Newspapers
- A letter from your husband’s office to prove that he really resides there and work there.
- A hand-written application letter (you are going to see a sample of this at the end of this post)
- A relocation form which is going to be given to you on camp
