The NYSC PPA is where corp members will spend eleven months of their service year working. The NYSC PPA is one of the cardinal parts of NYSC.
Why Change NYSC PPA
Most corp members are not always happy with their PPA due to several reasons. The major reason most corp members always want to change their PPA is if their PPA is located in a rural and undeveloped area. Also, most corp members always want to change their PPA if the PPA does not meet their expectations in terms of salary, accommodation, environmental conditions, the behavior of the management, etc.
How To Change NYSC PPA
Below are some of the ways you can change your NYSC place of primary assignment:
Connect With NYSC staff: If you know someone working with NYSC in the state you are serving, then just meet the person, and discuss your situation with the person so he or she can help you out. Don't say you don't know anyone working with NYSC, during your camp you were introduced to all NYSC officials in the state you are serving, try and get their phone numbers and put a call to them asking for assistance. Note that most of the time this is not free, you have to pay for them to help you change your PPA. If you relocated, just work into the NYSC secretariat in the state you relocated to, and ask for any NYSC principal officer. They will be able to help you out but at a cost.
Ask Your PPA to Reject You: Another way to get a new PPA is to ask your current PPA to reject you. The negative side of this option is that most PPA usually refuse to reject corp members even if they plead to be rejected.
Write to NYSC Authority: The last option on how to change your NYSC PPA is to write to the NYSC stating the reasons they should change your PPA. Note that you have to state tangible reasons such as health concerns, security, accommodation, and corp member treatment. If your reasons are valid, NYSC might change your PPA.
