The National Youth Service Corps has announced that the National Identity Number is a mandatory requirement for the 2024 Batch B service year registration.
This was disclosed on the scheme’s official social media handle on Saturday.
“This is to inform all prospective corps members that National Identification Number (NIN) is a compulsory requirement for them to register for NYSC mobilisation into national service,” the NYSC management stated.
However, some PCMs have encountered issues linking their NIN to the registration platform.
In response, the NYSC assured them that it is working with the National Identification Management Commission to resolve the technical issues.
“The NYSC is aware of issues affecting the National Identification Number (NIN) linkage in the ongoing online registration for the 2024 Batch ‘B’ Service Year,” it said in a separate post.
The commission advised affected PCMs to exercise patience and await a solution.
