Prospective corps members who have been posted to these states can now print their call-up letters. This announcement was made via the NYSC's X handle. The orientation course for the two states was postponed due to renovation works at the orientation camps by the state governments. The new orientation course is scheduled to commence on Wednesday, August 12, 2026, with the cut-off and swearing-in ceremony on Friday, August 14, and the closing ceremony on Tuesday, September 1. Corps members are advised to plan their travels accordingly and avoid night travel.",
