NYSC › Re: How I Nearly Died In Benin City During My NYSC - Journalist, Nwedene (Pix) by papyjaypaul: 2:06pm On Mar 17, 2025
NYSC is 'irrelevant' but Nigeria is not the only country where the citizens go for COMPULSORY national service. The problem is that bad governance makes the people hate it more.
This post is dedicated to the Channels TV staff who died covering Boko Haram, he would have been 45 years old this March.

On January 20, 2012, Channels Television journalist Enenche Akogwu was killed by Boko Haram militants in Kano, Nigeria, while investigating bomb explosions near the Farm Centre Police Station.

This post will fly over the heads of a lot of people because they only see what they believe in and nothing else.

Secondly your assertion that 90% of Christians that have been killed all over the world by terrorist organisations in the last one year are in Nigeria is FALSE.

They can never understand the part where FFK says, "Palestinian Christians (together with Muslims) have been slaughtered like flies by the @IDF and violent and extremist Israeli settlers and secondly to Syria where, since the advent of the Israeli-backed leader Al Jolani and his Al Qaeda and ISIS terrorists, Syrian Christians and Allawite Muslims have been slaughtered like Christmas turkeys and sallah goats on a daily basis."

When the news on Gaza is shared on Nairaland, they celebrate it based on the foreign religion they have adopted. Yesterday some of them did not understand why the South Africans will be against Isreal. They are indeed confused. Anyone who does not see himself as human first cannot understand this post.

What is the bye law she broke? That's my question. Bye laws are written, quote the one she wrote.

You can argue she broke a social contract, a social contract the government doesn't keep its own part. That's newton's 3rd law

Comparison with soldiers doesn't give an credence to your argument. State the law she broke
That means you didn't read my post at all. You just quoted me to respond, not to understand before replying. Goodbye.

Bro are you educated? The bylaws says that they cannot play partisan politics, did it specifically say they cannot criticize the government?

Jesus. With the number of foolish people in this country, this country is really irredeemable.
She openly called Tinubu a “terrible leader” and questioned the government’s failure to address poverty, poor infrastructure, and the unbearable stench in Lagos, where she is serving.
Those who resort to insult often type with emotions. Ignore my comments if it is foolish to you. Take time to analyze objectively instead of sentiments. I replied someone else that I don't like Tinubu's government, I don't even need to tell you that but that's the unfortunate level we have gotten to where people cannot see issues for what they are. While I don't like his government, I also know that Tinubu is one person, he will come ND go but Nigeria will remain. I won't hate everything about him just because I don't support him neither will I support everything about someone I like just because na my guy. If I see what is wrong, I point it out even if it's me that's wrong. That is how you analyze issues, no one is perfect after all. In my other posts, you can see me calling out this government but in this one, based on what I read and the people involved, she was wrong. If you destroy institutions because of one person, who is the fool? If she released the video after she had 'passed out', that is fine but since she wants to see the consequences while she's still serving the government, let her enjoy her newfound fame.

Zionmdde:
Your 3rd question contradicts your first question. Let's be objective, what is partisan politics??
Let's focus on the written laws and not what other civil servants do or don't do.

In your last sentence, you are asking her to know that in real life, people keep quiet and refuse to talk about government oppression . What a sound advice

Civil service is optional, nysc is mandatory.
Downfall? That girl is now the envy of many corpers. I have even seen Nigerians volunteering to give her a job, or to fly her abroad.
Don't you think her application for asylum will fly? So much for a downfall
Sir, I am not here to win arguments. Time will tell. Internet thrives on sensation and that will fizzle out after some time. Did she break the NYSC bylaws or not? That's the crux of the matter. I don't like Tinubu's government but there is a method to every madness. Do you think soldiers who are feeling the heat are dumb for not talking about the hardship? Good for her. Time will tell.

Now that she said what majority of Nigeria are afraid to say ,did she die? And even the useless nysc decide to stop her from serving,does it stop her from becoming who she wants to be? We are not in military regime.. That you are a coward doesn't mean everyone else should be. During Gej we saw how this Tinubu, Buhari were in forefront protest against this rubbish they are doing now. But since they came into government,they stopped all form of protest, using the security to intimidate,kill and frustrate unarmed protesters, who doesn't even want to much,but just a better nation,and accountable leaders.. You come here dey talk about some useless rules,that the NYSC bosses doesn't even follow.. This one below,I am sure it's also one of the rules in NYSC.. Rubbish!
Na internet everybody de get mouth. You have won, don't worry. When Davido wanted to go on a tour abroad while he was serving, did he go or not? That one no mean say some people no de sneak travel abroad during NYSC. Na who dem catch be tiff. If she is your sister, keep encouraging her. She is a hero. Congratulations. Na so una go de push people to do what you can't do. She has more to lose for her indiscretion and indiscipline.

Oga, what is "partisan politics" ?
So tinubu is nysc boss, how many time has he come out to give statement when one of his workers is kidnapped or killed?

So according to people like you, discipline means dying in silence.
You don't argue with sentiments. Have you served before? How many civil servants have you seen publicly criticizing the government? Don't misguide these young people to their downfall. If she was not a corps member, no problem but as someone who is serving, she should know about how things work in real life.
Politics › Re: Nasir El-Rufai: The Bloodlust Of A Presidential Wannabe, By Chidi Odinkalu by papyjaypaul: 5:56am On Mar 17, 2025
This is El Rufai campaigning for Buhari and abusing the President at the time, Jonathan. This is on Reno's page, he clipped it from Channels TV. Lai Muhammed laughed at how he called the President "drunken driver".

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5pL09cG0KQ?feature=shared
El Rufai gave an interview before 2015 and predicted that Nigeria may not survive. I expected the writer to write about what he did before 2015. He has a history that is on record and if you watch his interviews, read what he has said, he has not changed. He said back then that his calling was somewhere else, not government. When they were campaigning, he said he was going to school to the extent that Tinubu had to beg him.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mcRHbpG4Zs?feature=shared
Ask, what is he looking for again? He will pretend that he is not interested but he will disturb us with what is not working.

Watch this last one where Lai Muhammed defended EL Rufai's threat of violence if APC did not win the 2015 elections. His history is so rich.

I agree with the sentiments of the corps member but I don't condone indiscipline. She must have done orientation and read the NYSC bylaws. Gen Z act without thinking, they think the social media is another universe that exists outside the real world. As a NYSC member, you are a civil servant for one year. That government can use you how they want for one year. If they want to draft you to fight another country, you have no choice as a corps member. For now, Tinubu is your boss as a NYSC member and you do not have the authority to speak on some things while you are still in service. Know this and know peace, this is how you start learning things as an adult. You need to read the rules of the game before playing in it.

Edit: If Peter Obi is the same person who says
If you must be referred to as "Your Excellency", then the process through which you arrived in office Must be excellent. - PO.
He should know too well to not encourage rascality in the system even if we know it's rotten. If you want to show us that you are different from them, don't play politics the same way they did.

Edit 2: I didn't even know this issue was trending on Twitter. I have read some comments of the influencers, including lawyers saying that corps members are not civil servants, this and that. God, please pray for counsel as a young person. When it is time for election, please challenge the NYSC for posting you to PU. People have already taken sides because it is politics but two wrongs don't make a right. Let's just remember that the dog that danced to our whistle today when hunting and we clapped for her can be the bitch that will bite us when we whistled with our mouth.

In your 30s, you often reflect on your past, become aware of childhood wounds, and struggle with your parents

No wonder the country take you igbos as unserious liers! Buhari apuga?? Lmaooo! A besides these people you mentioned did a merger ! That’s what real politicians do, baby unserious politician like obi jump like rabbits whenever there’s little challenges from any members of the party! Obi has a lot of charisma attainment lesson to do.
The only thing I took from your comment was the error about APGA, the rest is what I call internet hallucinations of anonymous commentators, you are entitled to your conclusions. Even the State House writes about the merger of APGA during the 2015 elections but Buhari was from the CPC side, so I take that back. I wrote a comment about how politicians go from party to party, you are writing about Igbo and Obi, something is definitely wrong with your reasoning.

Tinubu left AD when Obasanjo and PDP wanted to take over the South West. Buhari did not merge ANPP when he went to CPC. I think he was not happy that ANPP joined the Government of National Unity that Yar'Adua formed. The fact that the coalition in 2015 sent Jonathan out does not mean that will be the solution tomorrow for a new government to be in power.

Obasanjo was brought from Prison to be President. He is the same person who tore his PDP membership card.

Amosun was contesting under APC and promoting another candidate from opposition party to take after him.

Ribadu ran unsuccessfully for office of the President of Nigeria in 2011 as the candidate of the Action Congress. He ran for governor of Adamawa State in 2015 as a candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party; before joining the All Progressives Congress to run in 2019 and lost his bid in 2023 to Aishatu Dahiru Ahmed.
In 2003 Ganduje and Kwankwanso were forward ever under PDP, today they are championing for NNPP and APC. That's how far our politics is.

VoA will transmit on shortwave and AM Radio but as I grew older, I grew out of its propaganda. I hope one day, BBC and France 24/RFI will also go like this for our own good.

Their programming was more organized and educational than Nigerian stations that was mostly music. One even had the more music, less talk as its signature undecided
