Read excerpts below:
“To all my fellow NYSC corp members around Nigeria, today, I witnessed how one of my colleagues, Adeyera Olubunmi (State code: NS/15A/0134)(Call-up no.: NYSC/NIJ/2015/061287) almost died due to maltreatment in Nasarawa state NYSC camp by security officials.

What happened this morning was that Bunmi Adeyera who is also Platoon 4 leader and was obviously sick went to the Camp clinic to collect some drugs to combat his ailment and was approaching the camp market to get food (since food was no longer available in the camp kitchen) in order to use his drugs when he was stopped by security operatives (Nigerian Police force and Man’O War) and was asked to go back into the camp hall for lectures.
How NYSC Corp Member Almost Lost His Life To Torture At Camp
He tried explaining to them that he was sick and needed to take his drugs but they did not listen to him, rather he was told to start ‘frog-jumping’.Bunmi quietly explained to them that he might not be able to ‘frog-jump’ because of his health status.

The next thing I saw was that the security operatives (who were obviously Hausas, because they communicated fluently in Hausa language) told asked him if he was Hausa or Yoruba. When he told them he was Yoruba and he hails from Lagos state, they seized his NYSC identification tag and marched him straight to the ‘Guard room’ allegations of ‘being stubborn’ without giving him any chance of speaking in his own defense.


This place called Guard room is a bathroom located at the entrance gate of the Nasarawa Camp where soldiers urinate at all time and with no cross-ventilation.

We all watched them take the poor sick Corp member to the Guard Room, and was detained there going to three hours. The next thing I saw was people from the camp medical unit running towards the gate with stretcher in their hands.

Behold Bunmi had collapsed and fainted in the so-called guard room.
Even while the Red Cross team was trying to rescue the situation, the soldiers sent them back saying that all was pretence and that when he wakes up, he will return to the guard room.
The doctors battled for his life for about an hour before Bunmi Adeyera became conscious again and was later stabilized.

Every Corp member on Camp including NYSC officials know Bunmi to be easy-going, obedient and friend to all which is more reason he emerged the leader of Platoon 4.
The population of those who went to the clinic to check on him is one that I have never seen on camp although they wouldn’t allow us take pictures of this ugly incident

But my question is this why is it that we Corp members who have in good faith and humility come to serve our father land are being maltreated even to the extent of someone fainting. This should not continue. All these security agents should be careful in performing their duties and should remember that the pen is powerful than the sword…”

Bunmi Adeyera is a graduate of mass communication from The Nigerian Institute of Journalism, Ogba, Lagos state. All attempts to reach the Nasarawa state co-ordinator, Mrs. C.I Uba, proved abortive.

All of you Corp members that witnessed it are otondo. Unable no get mouth Abi una no go public university.

Quite sad, most of this security operatives, especially the Hausa ones, na go dem hear, dey no hear come. Thank God he survived. That's the most important thing

una no fit protest for that camp? what if he lost his life? The culprits should be locked up in the so called guard room for three days without food n water...nonsense! all those small small boys in man o war n police officers without any ranks be flexing muscles n using corpers to shine...arrant rubbish!

NYSC shud be stopped but dey shud wait after i serve finish oooo

All this just to serve. And at the end of the month, they will pay you a miserable 19k thank God he is OK now.

All in d name of service 2 country. D real pain comes when u r done nd u luk back just to discover dat its totally nt worth it. Sad!

Holywizard:
NYSC shud be stopped but dey shud wait after i serve finish oooo

Police is your friend.

WHAT A PITY,BUTS ITS A SERVICE FOR FATHERLAND

BUT IN CONTRAST THAT FATHERLAND IS REALLY NOT WORTH DYING FOR

stop nysc, Nigeria refused

Sometimes i wonder the usefulness of this trash, endangering human lives just cuz of a sick nation. Just imagine how the guy would have lost he's life and am pretty sure nothing would have been done... Only in nigeria will a graduate take orders from an illiterate "Man 'o' War"

Useless people, una no fit protest

The same people that run away at the sight of Boko Haram.

May God save us from these evil people.

Weak on war fronts, strong on civilians, SMH.

Heartless baboons.

Government has to do somthing about these soldiers in nysc camp...all these SHOW of POWER is uncalled for

Crazy story bro

For nasarawa for nasarawa corper no dey rest....


Guy u no suffer joor.....been there..them even thief my phone after doing frog jump from 12am till 2:30 am in d morning...I no come nairaland make noise then ...I tackle them personally. ... but I complete my sleep for that guard room...

This Radio biafra 's on point **

ok first of all, i don't see how he almost lost his life here??

the actions taken by the security personnel were totally unacceptable, however this boy certainly did not act wit wisdom. the name of the game is survival. knowing that the security guys were refusing to buy his story why didn't he just return to the lecture hall to explain to the lecturer? and if the lecturer too refused to listen would it not have been better to wait a little in the lecture hall than to wait for three hours in the "guard room"?

you've got to think survival in a country like Nigeria

also i would think there should probably be something like a medical pass or so that would grant temporary exemptions to unwell individuals?

usess people.. that is why nysc should be scrapped.

Oh Boy stop telling story
