"Corpers wee oh" That's one of the new address system you are going to have when you get to the orientation camp. Registration starts on the first day(Tuesday) to the third day (Thursday), which is the swearing in ceremony,  after this day, registration will officially close on camp. So please I will advise you to go early and register to avoid missing your service year. Registration starts at the gate, and there they will ransack all your bags and so if you have take along fork, iron, knive or any sharp object, that is where they will collect it. Try and go early to avoid long queue like this Kaiama, Bayelsa state orientation camp   This is me in 2011 when I was an otondo like u                  so hurry up now as a new copa and do your registration. For your registration proper, read here on the documents you need to have handy.  I will be back tomorrow for what to expect on...

Once you are through at the gate, you will be taken to another point for proper registration. Registration is the first and most important thing at the orientation camp, just like at any other place. At the registration venue, you are expected to provide the following things: Official NYSC Camp Requirements : 1. Your final year Student ID Card 2. Notification of Result from your School (Original and Photocopies) 3. Passport Photograph (Take as many copy as you can but you will only need a few) 4. Your original call-up letter (This will be taken and not returned to you, take photocopies along too) The forms that will be handed to you and attach your passport are very easy to fill. Fill them correctly, because if you make mistakes on your name spelling, you will have BIG Problems with your Discharge Letter. After your registration, you will be issued with your State Code Number. This will be like your PIN throughout your Service Year. After you have been given your State Code...
