This is a story of Ayokanmi Oyeyemi NYSC personal CDS projects experience.. I shared it on my facebook profile month ago.. So copied it and sharing it on Nairaland again now as it may be of use in anyway. Thanks


My story: My NYSC personal CDS projects
experience.
So I left camp on August 26, 2014. But unlike every
other corps member I wasn't looking forward to
serve in a city but rather a small village where I can
possibly be of better help. And on getting to Jagbe
village I felt somehow discouraged at first in the fact
that the place lacks too many amenities but then
realized that it is answered prayer.
I resumed officially to my PPA on september 10, 2014
and so since then I started mapping out ways in
which I can be of help. So due to my relationship with
my students and some of the village elders and also
with the help of a certain village missionary I was
able to able to identify various challenges. After then
I made inquiry at the NYSC office as regard the
modus operandi in taking on projects and also
contacted a senior colleague @Solola Idris on ways to
put out the proposal. And by ending of October I
submitted my proposal and so I highlighted ten(10)
proposed projects to be executed.. Which are:
1. Donation of five(5) equipped first Aid boxes to
various schools in Jagbe.
2. Provision of sign post to Jagbe health care centre.
3. Inscription of the mothers creed at Jagbe second
school(Aimed at creating a healthier community void
of crime & other social vices as it is collection of
powerful words).
4. Donation of drugs to two(2) health centres in the
community.( Was aimed to reduce children mortality
in the community due to the shortages of drugs at
the health centers as most of the drugs were
pediatric.)
5. Provision of Educational materials to students.
6. Payment of WAEC enrollment fees for two less
privileged students at Jagbe second school.
7. Deworming of all Jagbe pupils.
8. Renovation of the borehole machine at Ikhua Jagbe
health centre.
9. Sensitization on hand hygiene and environmental
cleanliness couple with the donation of buckets,
waste bins, parkers e.t.c to the beneficiary schools
10. Training on skill acquisition on ankara bag making
at Jagbe second school.
So, after the whole mapping of the projects and
various calculations in the proposal; the whole span
to a total of #420,000. And so it was time to start
sourcing for the finance as the whole proposed fee
was at first threatening and suicidal; as this was how
the most difficult part of the project execution
started.
Back as an undergraduate I was one time a
departmental president in FUNAAB, Ogun state and
so there were times that I went out to various
philanthropist within the state to seek for funds(as an
undergraduate for departmental projects) & at the
end have always come back with beautiful result as
long as I have an excellent proposal but I found out
here that Edo state is like the opposite as GIVING is
not their watch-word.
So, in a bid to meet the budget, I began looking
around for all political aspirants around Edo north
through their usual fliers on the road and with that I
had a list of all aspirants for different offices(before
party primaries). With the help of internet, I got some
of the aspirants mail address and send in my
proposals(this was all around october, november)but
waited for weeks & months and got no response so
device another method while working with INEC as
an Ad-HOC staff in which I got so many of the
aspirants phone contacts through referrals & some
other methods(after party primary has been
conducted) and here I had a link with some of them
in-which so many are so busy that they don't pick up
so all I have is a 2-page or 3 sms text to convince
them about sponsoring my projects which I did over-
time. You know politicians now, got some who were
willing to help and some others who kept promising
but failed.. Aspirant like Hon. Dada Abubakar, Hon.
Momoh was able to help in their little ways. But there
were some ugly scenarios like when I visited a
former chairman of my local government(by virtue of
NYSC) in his home with my proposal; he bluntly
refused to help me but yet didn't stop there as he
continue chanting that 'am jobless, 'that am I the
government' 'that is it my state or town niii' e.t.c. a
very emotional day that I shed tears after I left him, I
almost stopped sha but still continue so as to shame
him which I successfully did. Also a ugly scenario
when I heard of a former Governorship aspirant in
Edo state who is known for his philanthropy works;
so after I have trailed him for months, I was able to
gather that the only time I can get to him is on
Christmas day as he entertain guests & visitors on
that particular day; so fast-forward to christmas day
(dec 25, 2014) I was at Fugar in another local govt
(Etsako central) in the big mansion of chief X(used X
as I don't want to reveal his name) and had waited
hours(got there around 8am) as chief X was so busy,
eventually he met me but told me he can't meet me
now that I should come tomorrow instead & looking
at the far-away distance couple with t-fare Its not
sensible for me to go and then come back(as this was
already around 8pm in the evening) so I solicited with
the gate-man to share his small room with him till
tomorrow morning which he accepted though at first
he was reluctant about it and so by morning I got up
& did 'rub n shine' to meet chief X even though I had
to wait till around 2pm before he could grant me
audience, eventually he did and after going through
my proposal he said this is an excellent proposal and
I love your courage but I don't help corpers for
anything atall as I only help maybe students or
community people, chai at that moment I felt so
irritated that I have to maintain decorum after
waiting for two(2) precious day couple with t-fare and
all I get is a NO so I left after-ward immediately in a
bad shape. There were also times that some aspiring
politicians wanted me to help them for electoral
fraud in order for them to assist me which I so
bluntly refused so the only few aspirants that help
me were those that wanted it genuinely.
Also, since the aspiring politicians weren't sincere
enough I had to extend my tentacles to some NGO
outfits, churches, and most especially SELF.
And by early January I executed my first project
which was the WAEC enrollment of two less privilege
students that cost #30000 then by February another
projects was kicked off which was first Deworming
exercise of all Jagbe pupils with sensitizing the pupils
on hand washing too and also accompanied with
donation of different hygiene materials that cost
about #60000 while the larger bulk of the fee was
sponsored by Hon Dada Abubakar of PDP. Also was
followed by the skills acquisition on ankara bag
making which turn out to be a big success as so
many of the attendee(both students & adults) are
now using it as a source of live-hood now. Then we
had the mothers creed project, donation of drugs to
two different health centers in which the drugs cost
around #50000(NCCF also assisted with some drugs
too asswell), donation of the first aid boxes asswell,
also distribution of different education materials to
pupils(which include biros, pencils, text-books,
mathsets, book of hopes from NCCF) and with all
these I had spend #230,000 for the whole projects as
I had to reduce the budget and left two projects un-
executed which was the renovation of borehole and
provision of sign-post to the health centre.
In all, I give God the glory.. Sincerely when I finished
the whole projects and started documenting it for
NYSC(for reference purpose) and calculated the
whole money spent & realized that I had spent #
230000; the first question I ask myself is how come?
Because I can't possibly understand where the whole
money came from... It was really a divine projects
that have improve the lives of Jagbe inhabitants; I
also got gifts with different recommendation letters
from the king of the community, the beneficiary
schools, local government e.t.c couple with the king
sincere prayer when I last met him telling him about
my passing out. And crowning it all was the state
honors certificate and merit award signed by the
state governor, NYSC Edo board chairman and NYSC
Edo state coordinator.
As I said these projects were done out of the mind to
impact lives infact while executing the projects I
didn't get NYSC officials involved not until the last two
projects execution due to it being mandated by the
NYSC management.
Lastly, I want to use the medium to advice serving
corps members and aspiring to look inward to help
their various community they are as this is the only
way we can keep being the CHANGE(nothing is too
small) also bearing in mind that funds will always be
an hindrance but that should not stop you. I was only
paid #19800 as the allowee in edo state, I had no
stipends atall from the state or local govt or PPA as
allowance atall and with my #19800 I I footed about
55% of the whole money that was spent. Nothing
good comes easy!!!!
Also greatly appreciate the effort of so many people/
organizations that have contributed to the execution
of this project one way or the other.. In the last 7
months had been one of my busiest and remarkable
in my life all thanks to vessels inform of catalyst that
had been very instrumental. Thanks to my very family
at Edo state(NCCF family): you guys remain my
strength, also thanks to every colleagues at Jagbe
(james, diya, kunle, emma, david, ada) for your
sincere service to help out without collecting
anything in retain: I say God bless you all, and to my
mum in Edo state(Daukaka Ahleri): thanks for the
wonderful inspirations; inspiring me to do more and
making me believe myself; God bless you richly ma
and to every-body that have one way or the other
helped also including all my very sponspors(hon.
Abubakar, GWSD, RCCG, hon. Momoh e.t.c); I say
thank you all and pray God will bring smiles to your
face the way you have directly/indirectly did to the
inhabitants of Jagbe.
(NB: for corps members/aspirants that are interested
in having personal CDS projects, can contact me so I
can send my proposals & other documents to them
as a reference)

Your revelation is a confirmation of my plans towards my service year. I appreciate you greatly for this sire. Pls,if I wanna contact you,how can I do DT? I seriously need your advice...my mail is aadeoluoluwatobi@gmail.com...

Dcaliphate:
U did well, no doubt, but you may wanna write a book on it. the write-up is too long.

You must be a graduate with poor reading habit. Wake up and live like a scholar.

well done bro,God bless u

missKiffy:
Then you've not met igbo people

You cannot compare Igbo n Edo n edo person is 85% stingy for d ones I HV metbut d Igbos is a known fact already but my own view us DAT dey re not stingy but conservative dey tend dey keep n reserve for future purpose I HV facts though am not n Igbo person I only admire most of dere conservative attitude

Highly commendable...wish all of us could have giving-back heart!

Great challenge you took upon yourself and it was fulfilled, God almighty will reward you bountifully. plz send me the sample of the proposal cos I'm having it in mind also. my mail is femxabiola@yahoo.com. Thanks

bro u did very well and i almost wept seeing these projects of yours even with your skinning status, which shows that not really buoyant but inspired by the spirit of giving back to the less privilege regardless of your position..
bro seeing these make me regret not to had such inspiration during my time in onitsha,but never too late.if every naija youth can have this idea and cut out the motive that NYSC is mainly to bleep ur fellow corpers either maried or un, and scatter the future(punny) of those young girls that they needed to serve as role model to,Nigeria will have been devoid of crime or decimate to a lowers ebb..
i say God bless u once again and may you live to reap the fruit of your labour both where u sow and u dnt..
God bless Nigerian youth
God bless Nigerian !!

Wonderful, pls how can I get your contact, I also aspire to do my personal CDS project come batch B?

My e-mail; ifechukwuma@gmail.com

We all want change and always talk about it, we come on nairaland and insult Governors, politicians, president and who ever is in the lime light or in government but ask the average nigerian, what have you done for your country, something little, we won't do but if na to curse that governor, that artist, that president, thread go full with complaints but come out and be creative for where, it hurts seeing this guy do all he did and still looking skinny and some funny nigerians will still insult him, all we are good for (most nigeran youths) is hating, abusing and complaining.

NYSC Should not be scrapped, look at this too https://www.nairaland.com/2422884/corps-member-doing-wonders-benue

Adebowale352:
Have an handshake man.....

An Handshake
Wetin dis Broda do you na?

C

'At the end its not the number of degrees/resources/fame that count but the number of lives that had been affected through you positively;....

Special thanks to everyone for the wonderful wishes and prayers.. I say God uphold you individually too... This thread isn't created to be inform of a show-off but rather to highlight a bit the way NYSC had affected peoples life, show the benefit in not giving up as a lesson and also help aspiring/present corps members towards contributing their quota in any way possible to their immediate community..
I also want to strongly condemn the mindset/notion about personal CDS project(s) that it must be a white elephant project I.e if you are not building school(s), it will be a library or construction of road e.t.c which inturn require large finance and inturn discourage so many corps members.. But the reality is that with #5000 as a corps member you can affect people's life like never before; all it require is the genuine passion to help people.. Have seen projects worth #10000, #15000 or less and yet made more impact than a million Naira white elephant project. Ohhh, by this am not by any means faulting white elephant project(s) infact they are very tangible but only to create the impression that you don't millions or thousands before you can truly affect lives positively.


Lastly, as promised I will offer help in any way to corps members interested in executing personal CDS projects but the first thing to have at the back of your mind is that you will have to agree with yourself to spend out of your own resources(money) for the project execution. Yes, have seen corps member interested in executing personal projects but can't afford to lay down as low as #500 atall but in all the best part of it is FULFILLMENT and bringing smiles to other people.
You will/may get sponsors but no sponsor(s) resource can be enough; need will arise in you spending your own money. If interested you can send a mail ayokanmioyeyemi@gmail.com
Thanks

Nice one brother. If every Nigerian youth can begin to think this direction by lending a hand to the needy, I can assure you that it wouldn't take long before we start having a well developed Nigeria. Health is wealth and the development of a Nation is directly proportional to the well being of its inhabitants. Please brother help me send a copy of the proposal japhethzubairu@gmail.com. Thanks

Thank you bro, together we will make a difference...
Pls, check your mail.

Op.. Good work. I also served in Edo State;a village named Ovah. My CDS project was just for my PPA and didn't document it. Edo State indignes are stingy so I know what it means sourcing for funds. I was in Dance and Drama CDS and I remembered dancing at ring road markets and OBA's palace to get funds but it wasn't available. We also organised a show at OBA Akenzua cultural centre too to raise funds. We did well at the regional and national nysc sports and Culture festival.
