adele88: Hi all

I am graduate from the UK, I am due to come back home for NYSC. But I am sceptical of what it actually gives you apart from independence pride and a certificate.. I know all this is important but i am wanted to make money ASAP and I am wondering whether it is helpful in regards to finding jobs. I am not familiar with Nigeria apart from the family that lives there and the 7 time I have visited Lagos. I am hoping to create contacts out there...the overall question is, does NYSC help with getting jobs in London etc..

Any advice would be helpful

segiwest: Sincerely, it doesn't get u a job outside tis country. If u hv political ambitions in 9ja, well, u must hv d cert.
It's fun though. I'm serving @ jigawa state but due 2 d weather ere I requestd 4 relocation 2 osun. (Pls if u can influence ur postin, pls do it ASAP).
Stayin back 9ja, u wuld gain a lot 4rm d scheme but outside 9ja, I doubt xcept contacts 4 biz purposes.

NYSC is useless
I skipped it thank God.
I was already far from Nigeria when I heard I was posted to Niger state to go and die of leprosy
Waka to all of them
They didn't see PH or Lagos or Abuja sef if I must be outside of Igboland na to post their grandmother to Niger state


Go and speak to the Okpokiri family whose son went to Bauchi to do NYSC after studying in London they received him back in a casket
Heed the words of a stranger and stay where you are

Naija_pikin 1: I finished servin october dis year. D service year is worth doin. U learn a whole lot about oda ppls culture,plus a lot of immunity cover dat u get. I gained all dis, more, and my national certificate.

Rich4god: One thing about NYSC is that.... If you do not accept where you are posted, you will never enjoy it nor get what you want. Serving as a corper have so many benefit only if you will accept where ever you were posted and face the challenges there. Its worth doing my dear brother.

pDude: Bla bla bla bla bla!!!

Why all of una dey lie give the guy naw? As if I didn't do NYSC.

OP, let me give you a quick breakdown of NYSC: First you will be posted to a state you never imagined you would ever visit (that is if you don't have a friend or relative to runz it for you). Then you will start going from bus park to bus park trying to inquire on how the hell to get there. Thereafter, you will make numerous phone calls and browsing to know all the things you will need to survive camp.

In camp you will experience hardship of unknown proportions (since you claim to be a UK guy) and some of these include filthy bathrooms, inedible camp chow, continuous sweating it out on the parade ground, soldiers that wake you by 5am not caring that you went to bed just 4 hours ago. Also being a UK guy (as you claim) i am sorry for you because you will fill forms manually and queue for allowee. If you are not sharp, you can be on the queue all day long.

After camp, you will be posted to one hinterland secondary school where even their principal doesn't understand a word of english. Also get ready to start eating local foods that you can never imagine in your wildest imagination. Also stay away from the female indigenes of the place you are posted to. They see NYSC males as a means to an exit from poverty and oblivion in which they live in. You better take a lot of antibiotics and condoms with you because you can't tell the manner of plagues that will befall you. Also beware of female corp members because most of them are looking for husband and once you (as a UK guy) impregnate them, na marriage and UK green card them don get o!


A word is enough for the wise. JUst make the best of your service year and stay safe. Also shine your eyes and get ready to run at the slightest hint of tribal or religious uprising in your location.

flow1759:
Abeg make we hear word. NYSC is enjoyable. For God sake, u are to serve ur nation not ursef. And also contribute ur quota 2 d place u are posted to. IMO anybody dat doesn't enjoy NYSC is not been truthful or dat person just don't want to, because whenever i think of my NYSC days, am fill wit nostalgia. Mehn if it is not d BEST 1year of ur life, mehn na u no wan make d best out of am. FULLSTOP
