How To Change Your NYSC PPA

Below is how to change your NYSC PPA.

1. Negotiate

If you are uncomfortable with your PPA, you can approach your boss politely and plead with him or her (depending on the gender) to reject your posting to that particular PPA and that would automatically cause the NYSC board to change your PPA to another place.

This negotiation may not work in most situations because most of these schools, ministries or companies have already indicated their need for a certain number of corps members to work for them.

They have anticipated your arrival and would now find it difficult to reject you once you arrive.

Although, with the right amount of persuasion you may get your request granted especially in the case of Government schools.

2. Complaint

You can also change your PPA by writing a letter of complaint to your Inspectors or Coordinator stating a request to change your PPA.

Clearly state your reasons for requesting the PPA change and be convincing enough with various factors that could possible make it uncomfortable for you like bad accommodation or health concerns.

The aspect Health complaints are taken seriously when they are convincing and that can cause the NYSC to change your PPA.

Make them understand how bad the condition of living is and how detrimental it is to your health.

3. Aggressive Display

As funny as this technique may sound, it is an easy way to get rejected by any employer.

This attitude should be displayed starting from your first day at your PPA in order to create a first impression of aggression on your employer.

Don’t act friendly even while greeting your employer and flare up at any slight provocation.

Act stubborn at all times and refuse to take instructions from your employer or superiors.

To make it more severe, you can decide to ignore questions and go against certain rules of the PPA you posted to and when called in for questioning by your employer, just give answers that would depict disrespect and deliberate neglect of law and order.

Also, point out your demands and conditions like you are instructing your employer. Make it seem like you have zero regards for him/her and list out your conditions that should be met before you can work in that establishment, making it exorbitant or near impossible to grant.

These things would get any employer frustrated and not want to have you on board.

4. Deliberate Stuttering

When you arrive at your place of primary assignment, pretend to stammer whenever you are talking. Make it so unbearable and frustrating when you communicating with your employer right from the very first day.

This is one thing that employers find very difficult to cope with in their establishments because it seems embarrassing to them and their customers.

This would undoubtedly force your employer to reject you and demand for a replacement.

5. Display Illiteracy

Every corps member is assumed to be literate and speak well constructed English Language.

To force your PPA rejection, you can act illiterate and speak poorly constructed English Language when communicating with your employer on the very first day of arrival.

This would make certain worrying thoughts roam the mind of your employer that would cause him to doubt your educational qualification and be forced to reject you.

This particular technique works perfectly in cases where your PPA is a school because no school would want to employ an illiterate to teach in their establishment.

6. Display Naughty Personality

One thing that is not condoned in any formal working environment is irresponsible and naughty characters.

From the first day of your arrival, make Your employer see you as a naughty and unruly person to make him uncomfortable with accepting you.

Use words that are only used when communicating with your male friends or drink buddies. You can start by calling him by his first name without attaching his title to it.

Then you can also make flirty remarks about her (if your employer is a woman) or any female that walks by to his/ her hearing.

These are things that would make your employer see your presence in his establishment as a menace and would be forced to reject you.

You should also note that you are not allowed to approach your PPA boss with complaints of not liking the establishment because that may only earn you a penalty.

When you are rejected by your PPA boss for any of the above reasons, go straight to your local government area coordinator with the letter and you will get re-assigned to a new PPA.
