Casual clothes are not permitted on camp
Do you know that on camp everyone is referred to as sir?
Be nice to everyone you meet, on camp you never can tell who is really who, so in order to be on the safe side always be respectful and polite.
After the completion of your orientation camp, you are to proceed to the next phase of your national service.
You will be given your posting letter on the last day of camp; this letter contains the location in the state you have been deployed to. This is referred to as PPA (Place of Primary Assignment).
You are not expected to pay anyone for your posting, be wise so you don’t fall for cheap scams.
You are expected to leave camp on the day you are posted, but you might be faced with a challenge of where to stay especially if you want to confirm your PPA before going for break.
Where can you stay?
Basically, you are new in the town and have no acquaintances who can accommodate you till you get a place of your own, so where would you stay in the meantime?
Do you know there are buildings in every state dedicated to corp members? This are usually referred to as corpers lodge.
Locate any of the available corpers lodge closest to your deployment location (muslim corpers association of Nigeria, MCAN and Nigerian Christian corpers Fellowship, NCCF corper lodges are available).
