NYSC cancels Orientation Exercise in Kaduna over Violence

The crisis and incessant violence in Kaduna State has forced the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) to suspend indefinitely its Batch ‘C’ orientation course in the state.

The corps shared the news on its official Facebook, saying the suspension is due “to the current security situation and consequent curfew imposed by the State Government.”

Affected corps members have been advised to remain in their homes.
