by EDUFEED BRAINS

As a prospective Corp member who is pondering on carrying out his/her national service (NYSC) in Enugu State but is unsure about the best places to serve as a place of primary assignment (PPA), this article is definitely for you.

The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) is a transformative journey meant for youths. This compulsory scheme, which was established on the 22nd of May, 1973, was formed to promote national unity and integration, coupled with personal growth.

The scheme usually tends to post young graduates across the 36 states in Nigeria to enable them to learn new experiences, foster national unity, and see how they can have an impact on the country at large, in which Enugu state is not left out.

Enugu state, which is usually called the “Coal City,” is one of the best places to serve as a Corp member. The state is located in the south-central region of Nigeria. It was created in 1991 from the eastern two-thirds of Anambra state. The beautiful state consists of 17 local government areas.

These LGAs include Aninri, Awgu, Enugu East, Enugu North, Enugu South, Ezeagu, Igbo Etiti, Igbo Eze North, Igbo Eze South, Isi Uzo, Nkanu East, Nkanu West, Nsukka, Oji River, Udenu, Udi, and Uzo-Uwani. Enugu’s state name, according to research, comes from its capital city called Enugu City, which means “the top of the hill.” The state is known for having beautiful landmarks such as the Awhum Waterfall and Ngwo Pine Forest.

Another benefit of serving in the state is that the state government of Enugu state usually pays its Corp members. According to research, town dwellers in Enugu state are being paid ₦1,000, while those in rural areas are being paid the sum of ₦4,000.

Before I conclude this article, it is essential to know what most employers seek from Corp members before accepting them. Most employers tend to reject corp members even after accepting them. This is caused by the nonchalant attitude of the Corp members. To be accepted in the origination or institution of your choice, it’s advisable to

  1. Always be punctual
  2. Dress appropriately
  3. Be respectful to the staff and management
  4. Ensure you complete the day’s work before leaving

By abiding by these rules, you are set to enjoy your stay in any PPA of your choice.

In conclusion, the national Youth Service Corps program is considered the best place to make good connections and gain new experiences and exposure. If you’ve been posted to Enugu State, I will advise you to explore the state and learn their culture (dos and don’ts).

The good part of following the rules and regulations of the place you’ve been posted to is you might be retained and asked to work with them as a permanent staff member. Ensure you visit the organization or institution of your choice in person before signing your acceptance letter. Thank you for reading this article.
