  5. pls the pre-registration page displays (no details found, confirm that your details are correct. ensure your school provide the correct details) pls what can the cause be?? Am a funaabite ( federal university of agriculture abeokuta)

  6. Hi Lola, i am seeing my name and that of my colleagues who have been cleared on the graduation list on nysc portal but it still showing no record found on the senate list.

    1. Senate list and graduation list are two different list. The graduation list contains the names of all graduates of an institution.

      The reason why the graduation list is on NYSC portal is just for NYSC to see if it correspond with the Senate list.

      The Senate list is the most important and if your name is not in that place saying no record found, you won’t be able to register.

      Senate list is the most important, so forget graduation list and contact your school to upload your senate list.

  25. Ajayi Omotola David

    Good evening Lola, thanks for giving everyone this much attention. My question is, does ones call up unique number determine his or her stream? For example your unique number is 277,994, does it mean you won’t be in the first stream ?

    My second question is, I finished from Uniben and on our statement of result surnames are Capitalised …
    So My name appeared as David Omotola, AJAYI.(surname indicated in upper case alphabet)

    On my green card and Nysc dash board it appears as
    Ajayi, David Omotola.( Surname punctuated by a comma)

    Hope it’s no issue?

  26. Hello Lola, I am in batch C 2019 and have been deployed to Ekiti but I don’t want to go to Ekiti. Is it safer to go for camp and apply for redeployment or just ignore this and revalidate with batch A 2020(when is batch A 2020). I am a foreign graduate, will I need to go for physical verification again when revalidating and will I be given a new call up number?, if I will how long will it take?. Because I registered on the first day of registration but only got my call up number 2 days to end of registration so it was already to late to be able to work it to get deployed to where I want. If I revalidate, will I have the same problem?
