She also said each of the prospective corps members would be allowed into the camp only after they must have been adequately certified to be genuine graduates.
The coordinator said discreet screening of the corps members would be conducted as part of security measures to ensure that there was no intrusion or impersonation.
“Registration dates have been announced to the corps members, and they are advised to adhere strictly to camp rules and regulations. Defaulters will be sanctioned in accordance with the scheme’s extant rules,” Ms Yakubu said.
The state coordinator also reiterated that the scheme frowned at night journeys and urged prospective corps members to avoid them for their own safety.
She tasked them to be punctual and diligent and comply with the camp’s acceptable dress codes, adding that flouting the directive would attract sanctions.
