How to get the Best PPA to accept you during your NYSC service in Akwa Ibomstate

First and foremost, Akwa Ibom state NYSC will give you a posting letter to a predetermined PPA within the state.

Although, I have witnessed cases where those who have issues may choose to relocate to a new PPA.

Normally, NYSC does not encourage relocations away from your PPA, so make sure you read the NYSC rules and regulations to make sure you do not default.

Some of the challenges for which NYSC will accept your request to relocate to another PPA or away from an LGA is if you have a physical disability, illness, security or accomodation problem.

If you have any of the aforementioned issues, they may honour your request to relocate.

To get through the best NYSC PPA of your choice in Akwa Ibom state,  you have to write an application letter to them.

In your letter, you have to state that you are a corper and then mention other reasons why they should hire you.

Make sure you submit your application alongside photocopies of necessary documents including your credentials, results and certificates.

If the company accepts you, you will have to collect a request letter from them which you will present to NYSC as an alternative for the previous PPA.

Note that the current PPA you are trying to move away from must reject you before you present the request letter.

It will take some days up to two weeks before your new PPA will reflect on your NYSC portal.
