donsmall94: 3. Camp court: if you a legal personnel, this is d group you must join. they oversee the legal activities of the camp. they issue punitive measures to undisciplined corp member based on the nysc bye laws ( abeg make una no face camp court oo, even jail dey camp ooo). lawyers, dont let corp members know u are in camp court ooo...(joking) 4. Medical expertees and red cross: this consist of medicine and surgery graduates, nursing and science laboratory technologist. you must always be in the camp clinic for emergencies and treatment of ailing corp member. your own parade ground is the clinic. 5.Other groups include social committee, sport committee, SAED committee. joining some of these committees might not yield a good result. i am a victim of sport committee, even though it was fun and an added knowledge. Platoon Activities: platoon means a 'small group of soldiers'. The last number on your state code automatically fixes you in a platoon. e.g state code 1214 will be in platoon 4, code 0320 will be in platoon 10, code 2381 will be in platoon 1. A platoon officer ( nysc official), platoon commandant and assistant (2 army), a man o' war and platoon leader and assistant ( a corp member) a. Platoon leader-He/she will carry out the leadership responsibility in the platoon as designated by superior platoo officers listed above. Guy! please rush in for this position; though stressful a bit, but its an hot cake if you are effective. most especially when u win trophies for your platoon. b. Platoons challenge- Several competitions will hold at the camp, which include, sport (football, volleyball), drama, macho man,dance (mostly cultural dance of your posting state), beauty paegent, comedy, talks, parade and some other social activities. Your engagement in these activities and yielding remarkable result for your platoon might lead to a favourable PPA posting. Its really fun guys. Camp Supplies: You will be provided with a bed space ( first come first serve) and a mat-looking bed (na joke ooo!), a meal ticket ( trust some of the 'Jagunlabis' who ate more than 2 plates with one card). You will be given a complete kits in which many of u might not get a fitted size. ( try and exchange with others who needs yours and you need theirs OR beg the officer in charge). Also, there is a consistent and uninterrupted water and electricity supply (no charging points in d hostels). Camp Market: popularly called 'maamy' . many market sellers are waiting for you to patronize them,ranging from food sellers ( state local meal, indomie, fried foods like akara), tailors, phone charging spots, consumables, plates, socks and underwears, dry cleaners, viewing centers e.t.c. things are very expensive in camp. Also try and visit the federal market (nccf). Religious activities: you are at immunity to practise your religion as far as it does not interrupt with camp rules. My Advise: many lives might be ruined in camp and many lives will be equipped, its an avenue for you to draw closer to God. Activities will almost take you away from your spiritual devotions but Nigeria christian corpers fellowship and muslim corpers fellowship are there for you. both fellowships will withdraw cash for you ( u might run out of cash, charge your phones and couselling. all for free!) NCCF impact your life through their daily worship and word filled service and engages in spiritual counselling and welfarism. The MCF makes sure u engage in your daily 5 times prayed uninterrupted.
Feel free to ask question about any pressing matter. 21 days in a confined territory away from the real world is once in a life time. two things are involved, its either you are equipped or destroyed. I am trusting God for your lives that after 21 days, you will come out smiling and not soberly, with a testimony and not with regrets. Have a fulfilled stay. |
