Shame on Nigeria. I feel embarrassed being called a Nigerian

If that girl wants to get her certificate of discharge this week, she should just say something bad about Obi.

Castigating and insulting Obi is Tinubu's mumu button
did you even read the post?

Provide proofs that she worked her way to Lagos or remain silent on issues that are beyond your understanding.
I don't need to argue conscience is the best judge.

Where is Sowore Mr Voltron defender of the Universe? Hahaha hahaha. The only time Lagos doesn't smell is between December and January, during Christmas stroke New Year holiday. Please don't ask me why? 😁
I hope you know that she was denied carrying out that particular clearance, not that she was absent.

It's indeed a big shame.

E be like say this Raye matter don turn pure “two fighting” between gossip and procedure — as Igbo go talk, onye ajụrụ iwu, ajụrụ onwe ya (person wey ignore law, na e ignore imself). NYSC don yan say no be politics, na normal disciplinary waka because madam miss biometric clearance.

But for Naija, once politics smell small, everybody go carry am like hot suya. Make we just talk true — whether you like Tinubu or no, NYSC rules no dey care for sentiment; if you miss clearance, na extension sure pass.
Are you sure she missed it, or she wasn't allowed to do it?

Nigeria is among the hardest places to live on earth
It has been made even worse by the expired northerner Buhari who ebilokan used to make his fellow southerner Jonathan a one term president.

Since we allowed him to switch PDP deregulation and privatisation capitalism prosperity for APC progreThief shege, everything has changed for worse.

May Day: Hunger, unemployment, insecurity real— Tinubu

According to him: “The theme demands our collective attention and serves as a stark reminder of the need to create an environment where every worker feels safe, valued, and empowered to contribute to the growth and prosperity of our nation. As your President, I assure you that this administration is committed to creating such an environment for the common good.”

On the economic hardship, he noted that while it is a global phenomenon, its effects on Nigerians are particularly severe.

Tinubu said: “I am aware of the peculiarities of the economic hardship Nigerians face—rising living costs, hunger, insecurity, unemployment, and the loss of livelihoods. These challenges are real and demand definitive solutions, which I am poised to address as your President.

What about the remaining 130 corp members who did the insult TINUBU but their certificates were withheld?
I no know where una brain dey sometimes.
The question you should have asked the young lady is:
"Where were you in April, and why didn't you do your clearance abi NYSC lied against you for that one?"
But common sense will not allow you to ask but start casting aspersions here and there.
No Be Juju Be Dat?

Story, we all know Tinubu can not take criticism and he will do everything to crush any form of criticism.

The NYSC is only trying to be in Tinubu's good book. Just like SARS, NYSC day will come.
But if she play her part by obeying all NYSC rules ,they will not find anything to hold her back. Also note that she is not the only corp member whose certificate was withheld.

Hmmmm.

From the comments here, I have realized that most people who make comments on nairaland are either secondary school students, undergrads or school drop outs.

Anyone who has gone through NYSC as a program would understand this issue is plainly basic.

And the girl saying they denied her to sign? Habaaa. In this generation of social media? I trust that she would have made a recording when she was denied, specifically for days like these.

Nairaland sha. Person just tire for the people here.
Rest abeg. You honestly believe that she would want to go on social media again after the number of issues her first outburst caused? After the number of enemies it gained her?

Until we start speaking the truth in this nation, irrespective of who is involved, we can't really move forward.

In future, she will be remembered accordingly...

You can go elsewhere.

Every organization has its rules and regulations. Why are we condemning the actions of KWAM 1? If she feel cheated or oppressed, she may seek for judicial intervention.

There are some fights you must be sensible not to fight. It's not cowardice but wisdom. Life doesn't revolve around your rights.
Naaaa!! Everybody cannot be a coward! The lady doesn't even send her discharge certificate sef! When I was in law school, I told the DG of Lagos campus where I was posted that she's corrupt to her face for the dilapidated hostel and lack of amenities which we all paid for. Alot of my fellow students came to me crying on my behalf that I'm in serious trouble. Two weeks , later the hostel was renovated and the amenities restored.

what is the trouble they looked for? Did tinubu and his urchins not critize Jonathan's government and call him worse names? even his wife who supports tinubu now was called a sheppotamus.

So what has this corper or sowore done that is trouble?

Lagos is a very dirty place right from time na. This is a known fact
Nigeria is a dirty place honestly, we need to do better with our environment. Good environment starts with us, the citizens. I make sure I don't litter wherever I am, I take all little trash with me while traveling, I ensure I dispose of them properly, groundnuts, nylons, bottle etc, always dispose properly

Exactly! Some people just dey talk from vibes and Wi-Fi.

If you never wear khaki and march go clearance ground under hot sun, you go think NYSC rules na TikTok trend wey you fit skip.

I doubt any body staying in Lagos would deny that Lagos smells. I can't even think of a body of water that isn't polluted talk less of areas where people haven't converted to quick defecation dumps.
Re: ‘Smelling Lagos’: Why We Withheld Raye’s Discharge Certificate — NYSC by Rindo69: 6:54pm On Aug 10, 2025

Immatex:
The girl’s account of why her certificate was withheld is more believable and accurate than this petty lie from NYSC.

There’s certainly no way they would let her go without some punishment.

There’s freedom of speech in Nigeria, but freedom after speech is not guaranteed.

Now that have said it extra 2 months they are giving her, she should just leave her certificate with them for 6-12months before going to collect it.

Maybe then NYSC would feel satisfied enough to release it to her.
Did she miss that biometric capturing or not? Nigerians need to learn how to be objective and less emotional/political when debating issues

I guess you have a personal vendetta against her. Don't you think it's a waste of time and data to exhibit such aggressive behavior on someone who doesn't care about your existence? Get a job kid.
