Posted on September 30, 2025 By CampusTimesNG No Comments on 10 NYSC Security Tips For Corp Members

In this article, we will highlight 10 NYSC security tips to be observed by corps members, to survive and stay safe during their service year in the states they are deployed to.

One of the major reasons the NYSC Scheme was established was to foster unity and a sense of nationality among the Nigerian populace. Hence the posting of corps members across different parts of the country.

NYSC Security Tips

As plausible and commendable this idea appears to be, we have however heard stories from different quarters of how some corps members were robbed, attacked, kidnapped and killed.

With that said, it is our responsibility as corps members to keep ourselves safe and security concious.

10 NYSC Security Tips For Corpers

Below are 10 NYSC security tips to help you survive and stay safe as a corp member:-

Live with other corpers

When posted to your place of Primary Assignment, try to stay or live among corpers. It could be corper’s lodge built by the Government or the family house (i.e NCCF, RCCF or MCAN corpers lodge. Crucial information reaches you faster when you live with other corpers.

Lock your doors at all times

Your doors should be under lock and keys at all times. This prevent intruders from gaining entrance into your apartment, especially for those corpers living alone.

Live close to your PPA

It is advisable to choose accomodation close to your PPA. Corpers who live far away from their PPA are more likely to experience danger on their way.

Be alert to any danger

Yes. you are likely going to be deployed to a strange land where you don’t know the ways of the locals. Be vigilant or alert to any danger signals. Report any suspecious signal to the nearest police station close to you.

Always tell people of your whereabout

Make it a habit to make people around you aware of your whereabouts. This is to ensure that you can be easily traced at any time.

Don’t stay out late at nights

Avoid keeping late nights, especially if you are a female corper. You are likely to be the target of hoodlums or local thugs because you are a stranger.

Don’t flaunt your valuables

If you do not want to attract local thugs to yourself, avoid every tendencies to want to flaunt your valuables. It could be your Laptop, Tablet or iPhone. These items may mean nothing to you but it’s a fortune to thieves.

Be careful when given a lift from strangers
