What do mothers teach their daughters this days?!Just asking......

Seuncoded:
In Nigeria, every year fresh graduates travel across the nation to different states in a scheme called National Youth Service Corps popularly called NYSC.

The NYSC scheme was an initiative of the Yakubu Gowon military regime in 1973 to reconstruct, reconcile and rebuild the country after the Nigerian Civil war.

While many Nigerians have called on successive governments to scrap the scheme as they say it has outlived its usefulness, many others have asked that the scheme should be retained.

After three weeks in the camps where they are taken through rigorous physical routine, the corp members are then posted to a place of primary assignment.

Apart from the uniform salary paid to youth corp members nationwide, state governments where the NYSC members are posted also give them some allowances.

In some states, the prices of the NYSC members differ based on their course of study, with medical corp members usually favoured.

We lists the allowances of NYSC members in 26 states across the federation.

TRANSCRIPT FOLLOW UP IS KEY!
So I went to Unigoodan on the 8th of this month with the sole aim of confirming and register my transcript with the Undergraduate Admission Office, having already processed it from my alma mater, Federal Polytechnic, Ilaro since April 27th. On getting to room 7, the WOMAN in charge brought out a bundled file in which already submitted transcripts are packed, she handed the whole lot to me to make do, search for my name. I did collect it, but, unfortunately, mine wasn't therein. I was shocked. As well, I became tremendously exasperated. I've confirmed it from my school's Data and Records section and they said they've processed it since May 3rd. 'But where could the problem have emanated?' I wondered. 'Oh....the Post Office!' I exclaimed. I know that is the only place it could be because I didn't pay for DHL or any courier service to enhance quick delivery of the letter parcel. Hence, the Post Office. But that seems to take quite a long period. I understand. Okay, I tried to put a call through to a friend in Ilaro who helped to track it by going to the Post Office. On getting there and making inquiries, he was informed that they have delivered it to the place since May 26th. Now, who is deceiving who?
The two feasible things here is that: it is either the post office misplaced my parcel order or they deliver it to a wrong channel -Post graduate Admission Office.
I remain calm. I stood still. I resolved to going to the two probable places as mentioned above. I decided to visit someone first. The person redirected me. I went back to the undergraduate admissions office. I greeted the woman. She insulted my inqinsitiveness about my transcript saying it's never with them. Except I would go to the Registrar and check. I didn't drag words with her. She was an igbo.
I kept calm and said, 'ma, I've made necessary confirmations and was told it already has been submitted'. Out of fury, She asked, 'Which school are you from?' I readily told her. She said, 'well, just now, they just brought one transcript from the Post Office.' I was eager to know. I knew it was mine. Mine that has been processed running into two months but now getting there. Nay, the Post Office were at fault. They toyed with my transcript and delayed its submission until I have to make enquiries and trackings myself. It's never their fault anyway. As long as I've tracked it, and finally got it, ko si ewu loko longe.
I filled the Direct Entry Candidates- Transcript register filling in my name, course and digits. Lo, I was No. 131 on the list. 'So much people have submitted this soon?' I wondered.
I was directed to the notice board by the rather harsh woman in Room 7. I made way there. There I saw, inscribed on print, inside a well protected show glass, 'Direct Entry Applicants for the 2016/2017 Admission session should ensure they always visit: www.ui.edu.ng for further details on the Admission process. Thank You.'
I staged a walkaway, just after reading and assimilating ruminating about the ugly stress I went through for the day. 'One thing stands: I've conquered the Transcript troubles.' I muttered loudly with all smiles as I made way back home.
Lesson learnt.
