NYSC to Decentralize Registration for Corps Members by 2027

The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) is set to decentralize the registration of prospective corps members (PCMs) beginning in 2027. Brig.-Gen. Olakunle Oluseye Nafiu, the Director-General of NYSC, announced this initiative during the opening ceremony of the 2026 Batch ‘C’ Pre-Orientation Workshop in Abuja.
The proposed decentralization will enable eligible graduates to register from home, eliminating the need for long queues at cybercafés. This change is particularly beneficial for foreign-trained graduates who currently must travel to Nigeria for registration and then return abroad, often making multiple trips for their national service.
Nafiu emphasized that this new arrangement would simplify the registration process and alleviate unnecessary travel burdens for both the graduates and their parents.
