NYSC Will No Longer Mobilise Medical Graduates without Evidence of Certificate

The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has resolved that graduates of Medicine who are yet to complete their Housemanship and have not fully registered with the Nigerian Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN) with evidence of Certificate would not be mobilized for service any more.

The 14-point resolution reached at the end of a Pre-Mobilisation Workshop held in Abuja with the theme ‘Deepening The Credibility of NYSC Mobilization Process through ICT’ also stated that receipt of payment for registration would no longer be accepted in lieu of Certificate of Registration.
The Director General of the NYSC, Brigadier General, Johnson Olawumi said to ease the problem associated with exclusion of graduates of affiliated institutions from mobilization for service, parent institutions in the resolution were advised to carry along the affiliated Institutions and ensure that names of the graduates were not expunged from Senate/Academic Board Approved result lists submitted to the NYSC.
“Relatedly, all Matriculation numbers that were assigned to graduates, but found to be invalid should be brought to the attention of the Registrar JAMB for verification.
“To guard against the bottlenecks associated with the delivery of Exemption Certificates to Corps Producing Institutions, the old system of delivering simultaneously the Call-up Letters and Exemption Certificates to Corps Producing Institutions has been restored.
“The full computerisation of the NYSC Mobilization and Registration Process is not without some abuses. Unqualified Prospective Corps Members swell the number of prospective Corps Members by illegally registering on-line. Therefore, NYSC Portal would no longer be opened until Senate/Academic Board Approved result lists are up-loaded.
“Accordingly, Students Affairs Officers have been advised to educate their students on the implication of registering on-line by proxy as anyone caught henceforth in that act would not be registered in the camp, and the action would be seen as a criminal act.”
The Workshop reiterated that as from 2015 Batch ‘A’ Service Year, Mobilization of Prospective Corps Members would be effected on the basis of quota/carrying capacity of each Institution as approved by the respective regulatory bodies.
The Workshop had in attendance the Director-General, NYSC, Brig. Gen. Johnson Olawunmi, The Registrar JAMB, Prof. Ojerinde, Representative of the Executive Secretary NUC, Students Affairs Officers among other stakeholders.
