THE National Youth Service Corps has announced that a change of name will no longer be a requirement for married female corps members seeking redeployment.
This is contained in a circular signed by the Service’s Director, Corps Mobilisation, Abubakar Mohammed, and issued to directors, acting directors, and state and Federal Capital Territory (FCT) coordinators.
The circular titled “Review of Criteria for Concessional Deployment/relocation for Married Female Corps Members” indicated that the management has approved changes to the criteria for granting concessional deployment or relocation to married female corps members.
It specified that state coordinators should now be informed that “changing a maiden name to that of a spouse is no longer a requirement for the approval of such requests by married female corps members. Other requirements remain unchanged”, the circular stated.
