They’ll be rescued!

100% sure!
Definitely, and very fast. It's election season, so the APC would want to score some points.

What exactly is your point? So are you now happy or feeling like you are better than those who are currently distraught?

When some people open mouth to speak, you just wonder what is in their head. Na wa.

Same Kogi they almost captured our luxurious bus that year (Ezenwata transport company) as we were returning from Kebbi state.

I saved everyone in that bus and got two corper bannies who followed me to my abode.

I was sceptical about the way the driver and conductor were stopping almost every hour complaining of gas shortage. Like, how would you be moving corp members from Kebbi to Anambra state and you didn't fill gas.

Something didn't just sit well with me so I had to send a message to the DG of NYSC. He replied asking me of the exact location (we were packed at an eatery in Niger state) by past 8pm and this was a bus that left Kebbi around 11:44am.

The DG asked again where we were and I gave him the feedback.

In the early hours of the morning between 5 and 6am, armed men stormed from the hill (the border between Kogi and Edo state) and unknown to us the DG sent an army vehicle to follow us behind at a distance. That singular act made my respect for that particular DG to increase.

2021 March/April, I'll never forget that incident in a hurry.
that paragraph 2, hope you later consumed both

The mental distress this type of situation causes is unimaginable. Again, who are these wild animals in our midst??.

Stop saying " be rescued" naa who they rescue who?

Just say they'll "be released", based on one condition (negotiations).
Because it's not going to be free, ransom must be paid.

Please always engage your brain before engaging with others. It's okay to be silent.

Being Nigeria is now a daily threat of life
Where is El Rufai now that he is needed to help out the clueless one in Aso Rock, who nevertheless thinks he is a master strategist huh

Maxymilliano:
The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has explained why he delegated some members of the party to respond to questions posed to him.
According to the former Lagos Governor, he adopted the delegation method “to show team-ship”.

Tinubu spoke at the Chatham House lecture titled: ‘Nigeria’s 2023 elections: In conversation with Bola Ahmed Tinubu’, monitored by The Nation.

At the lecture, Tinubu after his opening remarks, assigned Kaduna Governor Nasir El-Rufai to speak on how his (Tinubu-led) government would address insecurity and asked the Director of Strategic Communication of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council, Dele Aleke, to respond to the question on oil theft.

PresidentMUGABE:
Scrap NYSC now.....

Politicians children sit at home and get their discharge certificate while the children of the poor risk their lives travelling around bandits infested roads...
This is nothing but the truth, this program has overstayed its usefulness,It should be scrapped. And if there are those because of what they are benefiting from it are resisting the scrapping,the blood of all those kidnapped copers are on them.

Zero pity, zero pity, zero pity... when you guys are tired of the insecurity, you know what to do...keep managing it, keep playing the tribal car, keep doing he no concern me...

The NYSC should be scrapped.There is truly no need for it.The government should look for alternative measures to intergret and unify Nigerians.Students are being killed or kidnapped every now and then.

Nysc is now looking like a lethal trap in today's Nigeria where insecurity is the order of the day.

It should be reviewed.

Ok na.

I said suspend this NYSC colonial idea crappie the security not too good for all these NYSC stuff or tell every student to do their NYSC in their state of origin or in the state where their university is located to avoid touching stories some mofos said hell No, ok now go and free them.

You act according to what time and moment dictated, suspend NYSC for now till the situation get better or go for my second option. Full stop.

Imagine the beaten and the opueh girls among dem go dey receive on houly basis really sad. We nor dey hear word na to remain on colonial idea dey sweet us most. Na so we told dem stop WAEC nothing like West Africa bullshit let all country should go set there own exams for dem student dem say No..

Since 2010, violence on corp members is what I’ve read in newspapers. When will the government decide to end this one year waste of time and hazard to life?
Re: 15 NYSC Members Kidnapped In Kogi While Returning From Camp (Photos, Video) by Jakumo(m): 12:20pm On Aug 29
The NYSC is Nigeria's most dangerous squanderer of human lives, and MUST be abolished IMMEDIATELY. Nigeria is in the throes of a war against deadly Islamist terrorists whose stated mission is to eradicate Western formal education in Africa. This is NOT the time to be risking newly graduated young Nigerians along the highways that are the primary hunting grounds of bloodthirsty kidnappers.

Stop the NYSC today !

Stop the NYSC today !

You've spoken the truth that many are afraid to say.

The rich don't suffer. Their children don't suffer. They get their certificates through connections while the children of the poor risk their lives on bandit-infested roads.

Should NYSC be scrapped?

Maybe not entirely – but it definitely needs radical reform. We cannot continue to send young graduates to dangerous locations without proper security, welfare, or protection.

Until the government can guarantee the safety of corps members, they should suspend postings to high-risk areas. And until the children of politicians serve the same way everyone else does, the program will remain deeply unfair.

We need change. 🇳🇬

While I sympathise with the kidnapped NYSC & their families, the truth is that most of them equally loves the chains that are on their necks judging from the way they reveal their identities on Social media forgetting that the NYSC Acronym could equally be interpreted as ....Now Your Suffering Continues....!!!. I come in peace ooo.

Nigeria's most valuable intellectual property is newly graduated university students, and I agree with you 100% that this ridiculous practice of exposing newly graduated university students to the perils of Nigeria's kidnapper-infested highways must STOP forever NOW, or at the very least, until the country's epidemic of Islamist kidnapping has been SEEN to end forever.

Scrap the NYSC today, as in NOW ! !
Re: 15 NYSC Members Kidnapped In Kogi While Returning From Camp (Photos, Video) by firearcher: 12:25pm On Aug 29
While everyone starts calling government out as it should be, we should not forget to call out our fellow Nigerians who are carrying out this evil acts.

Regardless of how hard and tough our lives have been, no one has the right to kidnap a fellow human being for ransom. It is the height of evil and wickedness hurting others who are equally likely struggling too like every average Nigerian.

When we just blame government without calling them out, we excuse their evil deeds.

Which way Naija?🇳🇬

15 young Nigerians, fresh from NYSC camp, full of hope and dreams, now in the hands of kidnappers. Their families are distraught. Their future is uncertain. And the rest of us are left asking: When will this madness end?

This is not just about Kogi. This is about every Nigerian who steps on a road, every parent who sends a child to school or work, every young person trying to build a life in a country that seems determined to break them.

Which way Naija? We need more than prayers. We need leadership. We need accountability. We need a government that protects its citizen.

Which way Naija? The answer is simple: We either fix this country, or we lose it entirely.

May these corps members return safely. And may our leaders finally wake up to the reality that insecurity is not a regional problem—it is a Nigerian problem that demands a Nigerian solution. 🇳🇬
Police will get them.

What exactly is Tinumbu doing as president? So much insecurity and we are all carrying on like everything is okay.....

The insecurity does not affect those who should àct against it and that's why they are silent.....

Thankfully, insecurity does not recognize APC or Yoruba people....we will all suffer it..

Meanwhile, the NYSC has overlived it's usefulness....scrap it and save lives. Nigerians are not one and will never be one.

You are a gentleman and a scholar.

Scrap the NYSC, president Tinubu, BECAUSE the NYSC has now become a conveyor-belt supplying high-value kidnap victims to the illiterate Islamist terrorists who now own Nigeria's highways, and who thus LOVE the NYSC for what it has become - the cash cow of terrorists.
