Rescued NYSC Member Recounts Ordeal, Says They Survived On Garri And Muddy Water by Historyrewrites(op): 4:13am On Oct 13

A rescued prospective NYSC member has recounted the horrifying conditions she allegedly endured while being held captive in a forest.

“We are eating just dry garri with muddy water. I can't even give my enemy that water. We don't have a choice; we have to take it for survival,” she said.

Her heartbreaking account has sparked concerns about the safety of Nigerians travelling across the country and the need for stronger security measures to protect citizens.
What is your reaction to her experience?

The Nigerian government should make kidnapping a capital offence!

I think the most important thing at this point is to find out who sold them out to the kidnappers because it's obvious there are people who are feeding them with information

Was it during Tinubu's government that kidnapping started in Nigeria?

It is well.

. Don't ask Nairaland members for contact details (email, phone) or investments

The other day Governor Monday Okpebholo of Edo state sentenced some kidnappers to death but people were literally against it

They said they were just kidnappers, that they didn’t kill anybody na.. imagine talk.

I can't agree less! The prospective youth corps made mistake in travelling in group, possibly somebody at the park or someone working with the transport company sold them out!

Entering kidnapper's den is like entering tiger's den like that unlucky man in the UK recently....thank God for their lives.

But I like the way she concealed her identity..not like some that seek evaporating fame.
Re: Rescued NYSC Member Recounts Ordeal, Says They Survived On Garri And Muddy Water by IsraeliAIRFORCE: 2:16pm On Oct 13
I suspect there is a political kidnapping syndicate in Nigeria. Why must it be the NYSC buses? They are monitored and marked for invasion.

Did you hear DSS rescued them? One "I too know" on Nairaland is saying they paid ransom. Mtchewww. Even if, thank God they were unharmed!!

It seems you dont travel often...
Once its NYSC period...
Corpers move together..in one bus....
Since they are going to camp...
Even when they finished service ..they move out in group.
It is still their best option since most of them have to come to the state capital
to travel back to their base,

NO, but he was voted to among other things end it.

And since policing is still a federal government thing, na his responsibilty
Re: Rescued NYSC Member Recounts Ordeal, Says They Survived On Garri And Muddy Water by MEGAWATCH: 3:05pm On Oct 13
Waiting for another victim.....


They still believe that Tinubu can solve this problem.



What a circle.

I think so to, but the problem be that teachers, doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and many others, most of them do not want to WORK in the rural areas. Many of them want to work in the city or close to city.

One journalist once wrote about her NYSC experience in Enugu state. Teachers that were posted to rural schools would go and get themselves posted to a city or town. All that was left were NYSC corpers plus four teachers and the headmaster.

It's even worse for healthcare. Where I served, the only doctor was based in the LG Headquarters, and that one came once a week. If not for NYSC doctors, villagers would have to go to the LG HQ or neighbouring states to get treatment. And na southern state.

At the end, unless the government can make people go and work in the rural areas, NYSC may have to stay.
