The National Youth Service(NYS) on Tuesday announced that all prospective candidates wishing to participate in this year’s recruitment exercise from November 2 to 6 will be required to present a Covid-19 free certificate at the recruitment centres. Successful NYS recruits were normally required to undergo a medical checkup during and after the recruitment exercise. The service has appealed to the youth in all the 47 counties who are interested in joining NYS to turn out in large numbers for the recruitment exercise to be conducted countrywide. Successful candidates will be admitted to NYS Training Colleges at Gilgil and Naivasha for the basic paramilitary training on dates and times to be specified in their respective calling letters. The service further pointed out that orphans who meet the required qualifications will be given first priority subject to production of sufficient documentary proof.
