The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has announced Thursday, May 21, 2026, as the official passing-out date for corps members in the 2025 Batch ‘A’ Stream II.
The announcement was contained in a statement shared on X on Monday by the NYSC Director of Information and Public Relations, Caroline Embu.
According to the statement, activities leading up to the passing-out parade will begin on Tuesday, May 5, 2026. These will include Job Advisory and Counselling (JAC) sessions organised by the NYSC in collaboration with relevant agencies, as well as the signing of final clearance by Zonal Inspectors.
The scheme noted that the passing-out ceremony would be conducted on a low-key basis nationwide. Certificates of National Service will be distributed to eligible corps members at the local government level.
“The event will be modest, with Certificates of National Service issued to deserving corps members across all local government areas,” the statement said.
The Director-General of the NYSC, Olakunle Nafiu, congratulated the outgoing corps members on completing their service year. He urged them to uphold the core values of the scheme and remain responsible ambassadors of the NYSC in their future pursuits.
