If you are a Nigerian graduate who has been mobilized for the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) program, you might be wondering where you will spend your three weeks of orientation camp.
The orientation camp is a compulsory part of the NYSC scheme, where you will undergo paramilitary training, skill acquisition, and social activities. You will also be assigned to your place of primary assignment (PPA) from the camp.
There are 37 NYSC orientation camps in Nigeria, one for each state and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). The camps are usually located in rural or semi-urban areas, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The camps have basic facilities such as hostels, toilets, kitchens, parade grounds, lecture halls, and medical centers.
In this blog post, we will provide you with the addresses of all the NYSC orientation camps in Nigeria, as well as some tips on how to prepare for the camp experience.
