Passing out from Nysc camp is always a mix feeling as it's full of joy of freedom from the highly regimented life on camp, sorrow of missing ones loved friends and the fun on camp. But notwithstanding, there is still need to move on.
At the completion of the 21 days orientation course, you will be posted to different
locations (your PPA) within the state to serve your father land for the next one year. So shake and hug your friends well; you may never see them again.
On the passing out day, all corp members are expected to be on the parade ground as early as 9a.m waiting for the Governor of the state or any of his representatives.
Parade is being done in the presence of His Excellency, the Governor. Farewell and awards may be given to outstanding corp members and you will all be officially released to serve the state.
Immediately after the parade, you are expected to go into your hostels and bring out your bags and luggage which must have been arranged properly before the parade. Then you now wait to collect your Posting Letter.
Posting letter is the letter that will be issued to you as you are about to leave camp. It will bear your name, some other information about you and also your PPA (Place of Primary Assignment----Where you have been posted to serve).
Immediately you received this, don't bother yourself about the school or organization found on it yet. Just go straight to check the Local Government on it.
After knowing the Local Government (LGA), go and locate where the bus that is conveying corp members to that LGA is located and quickly secure a sit for yourself there.
Then you can now go about looking for your friends to know where they too are being posted and bid them farewell. But make sure that is after you must have secured a sit in the bus.
The bus will take you to the LGA (free of charge) and you guys will be lodge in the LGA Corpers Lodge for some days. Ranging from 2 days to 3 weeks, depending on the type of local government you find yourself.
Some LGA lodges will allow you to stay as long as possible till you locate your PPA and made appropriate arrangement to move to your PPA.
Feeding in the LGA lodge is free. At least for the first two days.
What next is your PPA palava........
