I was posted to Cross River State for my National Youth Service in 2007. Our orientation camp was in Obubra, the conditions were subhuman. For Example, the Officials at the Camp (MILITARY, NYSC, MAN-O-WAR, POLICE) would be served first with quality food. After dishing their food, two buckets of dirty water would be poored into the soup and be served to us (Nigeria's future leaders).

Those who could afford it never took that food, those of us that couldn't had to 'eat to survive' for three weeks. In addition no safe toilets were available, you actually risked your life by using the pit latrine (Shalanga). (Note this is not the major source of my anger}.

My anger has been aroused by the fact that the camp is now used for re-orientation of Niger-Delta militants and now the state and federal governments have now realized that they need to rehabilitate the place. New matresses, perimeter fencing, flat screen TV sets in hostels, mosquito nets and other general improvements.

Do not get me wrong, I am not saying that NigerDelta militants are not human or deserve poor treatment. But I am FURIOUS that the two levels of government improved the camp only because the Militants are willing to carry arms while we graduates were there living like criminals because we took the path of the pen rather than the sword.

Our leaders must change for the better, otherwise they will not be able to handle what their actions call for and will come to them sooner rather than later.

People tend to think that the Police and PHCN are the most corrupt Government agencies in Nigeria, I tend to think that the NYSC is the most corrupt. After our passing out parade the officials packed all the food we were supposed to have been fed with into lorries for themselves.

hmmmmm

Just a simple camera Recording and journalistic investigation can kill this. but you know the answer already instead of Journalists that are supposed to be the 3rd realm of government we have BLACKMAILERS.

The federal goverment releases the money but it does not get to the masses.

THE NYSC should be infused with the Military.
