People are working and trying to correct years of rot and make your life better and all you wish them is evil. Even the Bible most of you swear by asks you to pray for your leaders.

The Lord is your strength but always remember, what goes around will surely come around.

NYSCRe: Corper Raye Buys Her First Car (Photos) by DukeofLAGOS: 12:58am On Oct 13, 2025

Viral NYSC Member, Corper Raye, Celebrates Purchase of Her First Car — Fans Shower Congratulations




https://x.com/Raye_Hg/status/1977062134069461374?s=19

Social media personality and outspoken National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) member, Corper Raye, has once again captured public attention — this time for a positive milestone. The vibrant corps member, known for her bold opinions and viral online presence, recently announced that she has acquired her first car, marking an exciting achievement in her personal journey. Eyes Of Lagos reports,
Corper Raye’s Big Announcement

Taking to her Instagram page, Raye shared photos of herself posing proudly beside her newly acquired vehicle. In the emotional post, she expressed deep gratitude to God for making one of her long-held dreams a reality.

“I prayed for my first, not my last, and God answered. Last month, I got my very first car, and I’m still over the moon! I am forever grateful for God’s blessings and grace every day,” she wrote, accompanied by dancing and heart emojis.

The post instantly went viral, drawing thousands of congratulatory messages from fans, fellow corps members, and well-wishers across various social media platforms. Many praised her resilience, positive spirit, and determination in the face of past controversies.
From Viral Critic to Celebrated Achiever

Corper Raye, whose real name is Ushie Rita Uguamaye, became a trending figure in Nigeria’s online community following her outspoken remarks about the Bola Ahmed Tinubu administration earlier this year. Her fearless political commentary quickly earned her both admirers and critics, placing her among the most talked-about NYSC members of 2025.

Her latest milestone, however, has shifted the public conversation to one of celebration and inspiration. Fans describe her story as proof that consistency, hard work, and faith can pay off — even amid criticism or public scrutiny.
“I Owe It All to Grace” – Raye Reflects

In a follow-up Instagram Story, Raye shared that the car purchase symbolized more than just financial progress — it represented divine favor and perseverance.

“Every win reminds me that God never forgets. I may have faced challenges during my service year, but His timing is always perfect,” she wrote.

Her message resonated with many young Nigerians who are also navigating the uncertainties of post-graduation life, NYSC service, and the country’s challenging economy.
Previous Controversies and NYSC Certificate Saga

Just a few months ago, Raye was in the news for a different reason. She publicly claimed that the NYSC withheld her discharge certificate after completing her one-year mandatory service. According to her, the action was allegedly linked to her online criticism of the federal government.

However, in a swift response, the NYSC management clarified that her certificate was not withheld for political reasons but rather because she failed to participate in a mandatory biometric clearance exercise held in April — a standard requirement for all corps members before final discharge.

While Raye expressed frustration over the situation at the time, she has since chosen to focus on her personal growth, content creation, and brand-building activities. Her car acquisition appears to be one of several positive steps forward in her journey beyond the NYSC program.
Raye’s NGO Controversy and Social Media Buzz

Earlier this year, Raye also made headlines after declaring that she would no longer support any non-governmental organization (NGO) for single mothers. This came after one of the beneficiaries she once assisted celebrated being pregnant again, a situation she said discouraged her from continuing such efforts.

Despite the mixed reactions to her views, the new car announcement seems to have softened public sentiment, as many social media users flooded her comment section with heartwarming messages such as “Hard work pays,” “Grace found you,” and “Congratulations, Queen Raye!”
A Rising Influencer and Voice of a Generation

Corper Raye’s story continues to mirror the journey of many young Nigerians — full of ambition, setbacks, and triumphs. From her outspoken opinions on governance to her latest personal achievement, she has proven to be both controversial and inspiring in equal measure.

As she cruises into this new phase of her life, Raye stands as a symbol of perseverance, self-belief, and divine timing — values that continue to endear her to her fast-growing fan base.

See stunning photos from her car unveiling below.

He failed as governor of Lagos state is the reason that u have been suffering from then to now abi?
Not dat he failed as governor completely...if we apply logical, empirical/ critical thinking which is very obvious without any explanations that u don't have....
We can rightly say that he succeeded as a Governor in looting the Commonwealth of the people to stupor as governor for 8yrs and then criminally hijacking the entire system for 24yrs.. straight
We can conclusively have it that "lagos"/ "lagosians" failed and are suffering from his corrupt maladministration

This was before he cornered Lagos to himself . And this is a man who's not even an indigine of Lagos.

The only things that I can remember tinubu for as Lagos state governor was driving to office in black Mercedes G-wagon with convoy longer than third mainland bridge and honoring late Kudirat abiola cenotaph every June 12 opposite 7up Nigeria PLC Ojota.

He failed as Lagos state governor.
Very correct 💯 or in other words lagos failed/lagosians failed as result of his very corrupt maladministration

Oba of lagos in this case is clearly a "meddlesome interloper"

Jorussia:
I think this rufai oseni guy need to calm down and stop attempting to always force people to accept his submissions.I blame Umahi for coming to a station like arise TV to engage with somebody like rufai who thinks he knows everything the economy and governance.

Umahi should employ somebody like lere olayinka to engage with people like rufai on his behalf.I used to be a fan of rufai, because I love media interrogating govt and policies of govt.I can't remember when I tune in to NTA.However, Rufai said something in January this year that changed my attitude towards him.He said according to his sources of economists,the naira to USD fx for this year is going to be #2500.I was like is this guy real?Crude oil production was like 1.4mbpd from around 900k in May 2023.From that day I knew the guy was empty and his aim is to demarket the government as misinform the public.

Christianity EtcRe: We're Not Your Wives, Stop Using Us As Bedmates– Rev'd Sister Tells Priests by DukeofLAGOS: 12:20pm On Sep 28, 2025
immortalcrown:
Whether priests bed sisters or not, I don't think this post is real. No Reverend Sister will come out to make this kind of comment unless she has lost her brain.

I don't mean to say that priests are not sleeping with women or Reverend Sisters. Priests might actually be committing that very sin. But my point is that, if this post is real, this reverend sister should mention the priests that try to bed her.

Let her fight effectively. Failing to identify the perpetrators only amounts to noise and false victimisation of innocent priests. Announcing that some priests bed sisters makes every priest a suspect because the guilty ones are not identified. It also makes the public suspect that every sister sleeps with a priest.
That's actually what her submission is and she is in the right direction,unless u are trying to be mischievous with the truth,in other words with her revelation all priest are" suspects" not "accused" if indeed accusations occur she might be endangered ,even more endagerd from pple like ur type who dont want to uphold d sad reality of truth ,priests despite holding scared rolls and authority are still embodied mortally which makes then fallible to canal temptations ,so bring out such publicly puts them on check and elliminate future invcibilty

Sadly many online don't even followup on their state Governors or even know their state LG.. Just come online to rant about Tinubu.

Look as states like Akwa ibom, Cross river, Lagos, just few states that have been doing is using their allocations judiciously.
It's will be fine how you educate the citizens how to hold their governors and council chairmen effectively responsible from squandering the allocation (loot)thierpaymater is deliberately realizing for them after taking their subsidies that ones help cushion effects of hardship on d masses
