Reasons Why Most PCMs Might Have Not Received Their NYSC Call-up Number

It is no new information that most Prospecting Corp Members (PCMs) who successfully registered for the just concluded NYSC 2024 Batch C Stream 2 online registration exercise are still seeing the "Awaiting Call-up Number" notification despite after paying for the Call-up/Exclusion letter.

This situation has sparked panic among PCMs with lots of rumours flying around these past few days as the date for printing of call-up letter and orientation camp draws closer.

It can be recalled that some PCMs even had to go to the extent of visiting the NYSC secretariat closest to them to lay complaints about the supposed underlying issue of which most were sent back and told to be patient and wait for their call-up number to be released in due time.

With respect to the above situation on ground, here is what i can tell you is the reason behind why most PCMs are yet to receive their call up number unlike previous batches before this 2024 Batch C Stream 2.

After much analysis i found out that the number (1) reason that might be behind this awaiting call-up number delay is that the NYSC management might likely not want PCMs to work their direct posting. 

I believe we are all aware that the major information needed to process direct posting for a PCM is the call-up number of that particular PCM. Without the call-up number there is no way direct posting can be done. Direct posting is when a PCM works his or her posting to a particular state they like or want.

Hence the NYSC management might be trying to curtail and reduce the rate at which PCMs work their direct posting as it is now rampant in recent times coupled with the number of scams associated with it.

Despite the disadvantage that this may have on posting for most PCMs who wish to work their posting, it will seem like a good measure to decrease the rate of scams associated with direct posting.

The number 2 reason i have analysed to be behind the delay in call-up number is that those PCMs who are seeing awaiting call-up number will be pushed to 2025 Batch A Stream 1 which might commence immediately after the 2024 Batch C Stream 2 Corpers finish their orientation camp.

That means instead of a fresh registration and in order not to waste time, 2025 Batch A orientation exercise can commence immediately based on the delay at hand. What i mean by "The delay at hand" is that this current 2024 Batch C Stream 2 were supposed to have started service last year 2024 but due to certain things that happened it was pushed to this year 2025.

In view of the above, all PCMs still seeing awaiting call-up number are to sit tight and expect the unexpected. What you have to note is that no matter how much the call-up number delays, you will still serve so try to exercise patience.

Kindly note that everything stated on this post is just based on analysis on the ongoing situation and is in no way an information from the NYSC management.
