I was part of Road Safety Club during my service year... I really learned alot to be honest... Meanwhile, good morning fellows...

was part of NDlEA when I served but we were d real drug men... if u know, u know

How about NAFDAC?

I was actually the President of Charity CDs during my time. Those days were the best days if my life cos I really harnessed my potentials then. Good old days Mehn.

#5 was my cds group. It was awesome then. We used to go for sensitisations in villages. Our cds was just once a month, it used to get other cds groups pissed .

. And niggas who smoke will join NDLEA o. Preaching against what they do.
#no offence though
9ja problem don tey

I joined National Environmental Standards And
Regulations Enforcement Agency (NESREA)

and I think it's the best. Although, it wasn't listed.

It's like the MOD would go to church today.....

The manner at which he is pushing topics to front page this morning, it's like SEUN has placed him probation..

If there is no Band , forget it. Band made service worth while in ABK.

You forgot a very important one

*MDGs which is now SDGs CDS group.

Its like the father if all CDS.

The best CDS to join as a Corp member is the

"Hustler's CDs"

They teach you how to hustle your ass out during NYSC, so that you can have an easy landing after serving.

NYSC has this way of deceiving corp members that life is easy after serving.

Hustle hard during NYSC, and ball soft after service.

Happy sunday

I was just put in the charity CDS group...and the first advantage I saw is that I'll conveniently have people to give my clothes and shoes to.

I was happy to be in the Charity CDS. Co-incidentally, my immediate older bro was also in Charity CDS during his own time. He has a charitable foundation, today.
