Furthermore, please try as much as you can to rectify all discrepancies on your documents before going to camp.
If you discover spelling issues on your documents, you’re advised to swear a duly signed affidavit at the court and go along with it to the camp.
Treat this information as important. It has become necessary that we inform you because a lot of persons who encountered similar issues were unable to open their NYSC allowance account which is mandatory for all Corps members.
In the NYSC camp, a document that will serve as government identity will be given to you to open the account. The name on the document will be taken from your school document.
The Bank officials at NYSC camp will check if the name on the document corresponds with the name on your BVN. Only if it corresponds that you will open NYSC allowance account.
