Is Laptop allowed in NYSC Camp?

Is it true that bringing a Laptop to Camp is prohibited?

I graduated last year July, completed my clearance and waiting my institution to drop senate list so I can register for my service year, I'm super excited about going for NYSC but something has been bugging for a while and I need urgent answers

I want to go with my Laptop so I can work remotely. I want to keep my remote job while serving.

Are pcms allowed to come to NYSC camp with their gadgets?

I recently landed a decent job as a customer support staff for a North American based game tech company and it's fully remote, my shift is usually from 6pm till midnight and maybe 3am once or twice weekly cause of the time difference. My hopes are high that I’d be able to put in a few hours while at camp and keep my job during the course of my service year since it's fully remote, the experience is a huge plus on my cv, and the hours are quite flexible

Can't ask for 3 weeks off cause I've only been working with the firm for less that 2 months though I'm not new to remote work as I've been working remotely for over two years on both contract and freelance projects since 2020 (lockdown/ASUU strike) forced everyone to explore opportunities in the digital space.

I love my job and I want to keep it, but I'm hearing that Laptops are prohibited in most Camps how true is this and what are my chances?

My brother in the Lord, your laptop may not come back home with you after camp. Be rest assured that, it will most likely be stolen.
But if you cant take the risk, It is surely not forbidden in camp.

wetin man go do na?

I'm ready to risk it if na that one. Nor be today sha.

Laptop is prohibited.
Getting into camp with your laptop isn't much a problem, the problem is the time of your shift, 6pm to 3am is a time you can't use your laptop in NYSC camp. If your shift was to be from 10pm upward, better. You just use mosquito net and dress down bunk at the edge of your room in the camp, and you're good to go.

As for how you can get into camp with your gadget, it's not something I can post here, but still it depends on how well your platoon coordinator understands with you.

Exactly, what are my chances? Are they any groups I can work with that would increase my chances of being allowed to use my Laptop?

I don't mind doing anything related to graphics design and content development/comms these are my core skills

Also what activities would one be expected to take part in from 6pm? I believe the usual parade drills starts 4 am? My shift usually ends before midnight. Only work till 3am about twice a week (overtime)

How can I get in? I just need to know my chances, I've not been posted yet

How my roomie did during my service year, he arrived camp on resumption day, completed registrations, met my platoon coordinator and liassed with him. Went back to wherever he kept the laptop, brought it into the camp and kept it with the platoon coordinator. Every night after the compulsory social nights, he's always on his bed mixing songs, he's a DJ.

Okay, quick update:

Let me start by saying I got the best boss ever

Been worried and racking my head as to how I can divide myself to be at NYSC camp and at the same time keep my remote job with the tight schedule & restrictions in camp. But not anymore.

I decided to register anyway, did manual and online registration now waiting to be posted. So this Monday I called my boss and asked for a meeting where I explained my dilemma, and lo and behold. She was so understanding. I got three weeks off ��

Omo its not easy. How many Naija employers would do this?

I'm pumped up rn. Can't wait to share my own camp chronicles on these streets

Thanks to everyone who responded to this with views and suggestions. God bless y'all

Congrats.
When there's an opening in the firm, or similar remote openings, kindly notify us, as I'm searching for such remote opening.

Is it possible to register NYSC twice
