The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has dismissed claims circulating on social media suggesting that Prospective Corps Members (PCMs) without Call-Up Numbers should visit State Secretariats for collection. In a press statement on Tuesday, signed by Acting Director of Information and Public Relations Caroline Embu, the NYSC described the information as false and misleading, urging the public to disregard it.
The NYSC clarified that all official communication with PCMs is conducted exclusively through their individual dashboards and the Scheme’s verified social media platforms. It advised PCMs who are yet to receive their Call-Up Numbers to remain patient and regularly check their dashboards and the official NYSC pages on platforms such as Facebook, X, Instagram, and Threads for updates.
The Scheme reassured the public of timely and accurate updates through its official channels and cautioned against relying on unverified sources of information. PCMs were encouraged to follow only approved platforms for reliable guidance.
