lol I thought u were happy with it.
they don't understand English
some of them manage to speak pidgin.
anyway people have gone there and survived. God will see us through
let's be realistic. many states are also like that even the Almighty cross river and akwa ibom. The only good places there are their towns. But entering their villages, some still live in mud huts as house. some places is very rare to see a single modern house. Igbos' rock jare, they try to develop their villages by building modern houses. Then tomorrow Yoruba ppl and other tribes would be saying "igbos and village" especially because they always travel home for festive seasons like Christmas. Of course who would want to spend Xmas in a mud hut.

rosalieene:
generally, the state is a bad place to serve

lol..kwara palaver!

butanep:
I was doing side jobs. I organised private lectures for about three students. The pay was small but it was solving certain needs.


Kwara is not a state you will get enough money to save but standard of living is relatively cheap there. Food and houses are very cheap.

Peradventure you are posted to kwara, don't do anything to influence your posting to Ilorin ( the capital city) ooo, if not, you will kill yourself by yourself or even borrow money home.

Goodluck

thanks bro....surprised about the Ilorin part o, wanted my ppa there oo,anyway I know better now. it seem your also from uniben lol #greatestgbogbo!!!

butanep:
Bros you try ooo. I served in kwara C14 @ oke Ero local govt. Na 68k I carry go house after hsc training n others things I bought. I follow woman shall, I went to party, I traveled a lot because the place was very boring and I never regreted my actions. I gave out to indegene too.

Kudos man.

I'm a PCM,I was given kwara on the fake CUL. I just wanted to know how u saved that much without state allawi, or u did sidejobs?

sundayslim:
I served in 2013 and funny enough in kebbi state. During my NYSC, I made around 400 thousand naira aside my alawee.

Let me quickly explain.

1. I offered to assist fellow corps members to save their money (Cuz its hard not to spend it) and in exchange they pay me 1k per month. I had about 50 people patronizing me during NYSC.

2. I helped polytechnic students type their final year projects and assignments at cheaper rate. God blesses me and my boss in my ppa allowed me use the office printer for free so I was making around 10-15k per week from this.

3. I taught in a private school as side runs. I was favoured in the sense that I only come when I have a class and leave once I'm done. I was paid 8k per month from this.

4. I held private home lessons for primary school children near the house. God so kind, I was making 5k per child each month. We used to meet 3 times a week. I had about 3 children.

5. I built a wireless network to help NYSC in the state speed up their camp registration process. This really helped me a lot. I read a few things online and applied it to help NYSC and it worked. In return, I was taken to 2 camps as NYSC staff still as a corps member. Made 40k each time aside feeding expenses.

6. I taught computer courses to fellow corps members at 10-15k each. Was able to train about 6 corpers during my time.

7. As the key drummer in my CDS (dance and drama), I made some money every time we were invited to perform at events.

Those were the major activities I engaged in during my service year.

I went on to use the money to pursue professional certifications, and today I can proudly say I am a network professional with competence in Cisco, Microsoft, Comptia, Huawei and Mikrotik network technologies, as well as project management according to PMI.

Don't ever be discouraged. There are hidden blessings and countless opportunities in the most unlikely of places.

Wishing you success all through the year.
25th birthday on March 24, 2016. You are all invited.

Cheers.

men I love your versatility!!

xager:
Well, let me hope for the best. Does Kwara state pay corpers?

no oooo!!!

olecharles:
Considering the rate of naira devaluation, it will be a treasonable offence for federal government to keep paying us #19500 as allowance for the copper in this year 2016 for one year while serving our father land. We should not go through this excruciating pain in the name of service for fatherland.... Even the military, navy and police are well paid. We also put our life on the line by going to places we dnt want to go doing things we dnt wish to do and giving a whole one year.

If we remain docile ND continue to revieceive this 19,500 we will end up been stranded in the service year or spending our own money which we dnt have .

Guys hear is the deal.

Kwara state camp...


Is so not in ilorin......its actually 2hrs out of ilorin en route jebba, Niger state, in edu local government, and is called yikpata camp!...

It's a cool place....dusty and very close to a major river. Yikpata camp as its called is one of d oldest camps in nigeria and it's just dia.
It's surrounded by bushes and yes dia r reptiles...

But the predominant animals seen are scorpions and snakes....so alwaiz have ur jungle boots on...

As with most camps in Nigeria there is no water but there are natives who sell river water at N20 a bucket to corpers so u could shower, wash etc.....

There are toilets too but you know Nigerian students/fresh corpers...peeps still shut-put and that sortta ruins the freshness of the air around. In my camp doe...soldiers will make u pick 'em up...if ur hostel mates defecate and ruin d environment.

Errr.....what else...

I think dahts all d negatives......

aaah snakes,scorpions...wtf

katerine7:
are u for real, u mean snakes as in SNAKES

kwaaraa oo..why me!!!
