See the different reactions from the general public when they see you with the NYSC khaki

Despite the poor finishing of the NYSC khaki, wearing it has always been a thing of pride for corps members even though some of us act as if we don't enjoy the attention that comes with it.

  • The kind of attention that comes with wearing the NYSC khaki are in two ways, while you get admired by the younger generation who aspires for higher academic learning so that they too can also, one day put on the brilliant NYSC khaki and enjoy the privileges that comes with it, to pride themselves as a Federal government son/daughter and explore new environment.




The reaction from the older generation seems to be indifferent which comes with pity and remorse, accompanied with so many elderly advice from them.

it seems to be a medium of venting their frustration concerning the abysmal situation of things in the country.

I have experienced this in sundry occasions, especially when I board a taxi or get into a public bus, or when i'm in a public gathering wearing complete 7/7 and the least of them all is when I'm on a motorcycle.

The conversation will alway start like this, corper corper how are you, my reply is always fine knowing their  next line of conversation.

It seems you are new in Kaduna state, my reply; yes.

Then you will hear things like; try o corper because in this country there's no sure job for graduates after service anymore except you have the connect else you just have to hustle.

Next thing you will hear is that, ..see me now I'm a graduate of so so University and I served back then in 2007 after the long search of job with no positive outcome I have start hustling on my own.

My last encounter was with a motorcyclists who told me he served in 2010 and after then he has been in search of a job.

He said that the only one he got was a teaching job of 20k per month and after working for years he finds out he was still struggling financially, he had to quit the job which resulted him becoming a motorcyclists and the honest truth is that he's more financially stable than before.




From his story, he told me he makes at least 3000 naira a day and most importantly he has the control of his time.

So far these mixed reaction gotten from the society as a corps member has made me very uncomfortable with putting the NYSC khaki on.

From all my different encounter with people, so far, I was able to deduce that there are so many Nigerian living in regrets of being a graduate, they believe that they should have spent their time in learning a skill or a business to be an entrepreneur rather than going to school when there's no guarantee of a good job.

So, my little advice for  my fellow corp members serving the Nation Nigeria, which ever state you find yourself, please it's salient you learn a skill or attempt any business plan that suit you in other to avert post NYSC trauma because life after NYSC can be really frustrating especially when you have nothing doing.

Help; I've been dating two brothers without knowing, lady cries out



I have been dating and sleeping with two brothers without knowing they are family.

I met the older brother when I was serving in Ogun state and after service I got a job in Lagos State then I met the younger as a colleague working together.




That's how I got myself involve with both brothers. I got to know they are related after I stumbled on the elder brother's Instagram page and I saw their family pictures when they were together.

Hard to wrap my head cos I never thought I'd be bleeping two brothers without me getting to place a connection.
 The problem now is, the elder one invited me last weekend to his place in Ogun state(he was retained after NYSC in Ogun state) and surprisingly he proposed to me and I didn't want to say yes or collect the ring but at the same time I also didn't want to embarrass him in front of his friends.




So he wore the ring on my finger and everyone was happy, I was happy and surprised too but the thought of both of them dating me keep moving in my head cos the younger one has been getting so serious lately too and has been talking about how we are going to make fine babies together.

I didn't say anything till I left his place on sunday and he's yet to post videos and photos from the proposal party cos I told him to keep everything low key for now.

Please how do I handle this? I'm confuse. It's not my fault.

How I slept with twin sisters without knowing


Man shares his experience after having sex with twin sisters without knowing, read below

"So I met a girl via a friend. We got to talk and it eventually led to hot sex. Somehow we lost contact and I couldn't reach her.

Found her on IG after a year and decided to chat her up but she started acting weird so I had to describe how we met and all. She eventually remembered and we tried meeting up again.




Again rekindled the flare and it lead to sex. So I didn't want to be just that so I told her we should hangout, I'm beginning to like her and I want a steady relationship. She said she would only go out if she brings her sister. I was OK with it.

On that faithful day I was busy waiting for them at the mall. I saw her coming out from her car. Then I saw what made my heart skip. Another of herself was opening the passenger's door. They are bleeping identical twins. OMG. To make matters worse they wore similar clothes so I didn't know who I was sleeping with. Then both smiled and made me looked stupid.




After so much haste and begging so they could clear the uncertainty. I realized that I have been sleeping with two sisters. I felt used.

Now I don't know what to do and to be frank I don't know who is who. Please what should I do."

Why my wife's death caused me to be traumatized



"The worst thing that has ever happened to me was the death of my wife, barely a month after marriage.
I understood a lot of things then,
Why people commit suicide, why people talk to themselves, why people lose focus.

 We were so young, I was 28, she was 25 and the love of my life .
I resigned a high paying job because I couldn't focus, I haven't washed my clothes or cooked in over 3years of dating.

 But the worst of it was all the frequent calls and talking through the day. I had no one to call, she was my best friend.





I was an angry wrecking ball, angry with God, life, everything. 3 years after, I'm still single, i'm healed of the hurt and anger but a part of me is gone. I couldn't talk to anyone about how I felt.

 I was dying inside, No appetite, can't work, always angry. I wasn't alive.

But I let myself grief. I didn't try to stop it or find someone, I wanted healing so I can give my best to the next lady.

Life felt so worthless then but Christ came for me. He showed me that something good can come from a bad situation, reminded me of all God's generals.




I saw that grief was a part of making me grow.
I still miss my wife, I still love her, We had dreams, she made a man from the boy I was.
But I know more the depths of God's love because it found me when I even wanted to die."

How trending fashion causes vaginal overheating , Dr Mbume explains.



Dr Tony Mbume, who works with CIAGIN Medical Laboratory in Lagos has advised women to stop wearing tight jeans, synthetic panties and leggings, to prevent vaginal infections.

According to him, because of recent fashion trends most Nigerian females opt to wear these synthetic pants, leggings and tight jeans without considering the health implications. Mbume disclosed this to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos that synthetic wears caused the vagina to ‘overheat’, which could disrupt its ecosystem.




He said that under wears made of latex, nylon or polyester and synthetic materials could trap moisture and warmth, making the vagina vulnerable to different types of infection

“Synthetic panties can cause the vagina area to overheat and this can sometimes cause burning sores, itching or irritate the sensitive skin, as well as causing blisters.

“The friction caused by walking in tight pants and jeans can irritate the skin, resulting in the formation of blisters,’’ he said.

He also revealed that the vaginal burning and itching was usually accompanied by discharge and bad odour.

He further said that such infections could be dangerous if left untreated, as it might lead to infertility due to damage of the reproductive organs.




The microbiologist, however, recommended cotton underwear, to ventilate the vagina and eliminate infections, adding that wearing cotton underwear helped to keep the vagina free of excessive moisture and allows the area to breathe.

“Use cotton menstrual pads too. Cotton absorbs excess moisture and removes buildup heat from the area. It is the only materials that can become stronger when wet and is easily sterilized after use.

“Avoid sleeping with pants at night, to keep the vagina area dry throughout the night,’’

Faith at work


A man of God was returning from his daily evangelism program when he was obstructed by a lady one evening. He tried to sway himself out but the lady insisted on holding him back then he said to the lady please madam I'm very tired as u can see and I'm just returning from evangelism can you please let go of me but still, the lady obstinate.





 So after a failed persuasion attempt by the man of God, so he decided to ask the lady what do you want?

She said pastor as you can see I'm frustrated and my marriage is on the brick of crashing because I can't bear children and I have tried all I could and also i have been to so many places yet my predicament seems not to have change.

Then the man of God responded what do you want me to do ?

 the lady replied saying, I believe if you can pray for me my problem will be over.

The man who was tired and just looking for a means to get home so that he can rest, spoke to God in his heart and asked, Lord want do you want me to do and lord said to him just pray.




So he laid his hands on the lady and made a word of a prayer saying by this time next year you will carry your own baby and then he left.

But the lady ran after him asking sir, is that all, the man of God replied yes and left.

Years later, after ministering in a church which he was invited, a lady approached him saying pastor do you recognise me, the man of God smile in amazement and decline, because he couldn't remember anything about the lady.

So the lady began to give her account to him of how she intercepted him some years back when he was returning from evangelism and so she asked him to pray for her because she couldn't bear children and her marriage was about to crash because of that.

Then the man of God nod his head in affirmation saying o... I remember, then he asked how is your marriage now then the lady replied well... This little boy standing beside me is the result of that prayer and my marriage is good now. I never had the chance to thank you sir that's why  I came waited to see you.

Saraki describes APC presidential victory as a Pyrrhic victory


The President of the Nigeria Senate, Bukola Saraki, has said that the victory of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) at the just concluded polls will be short-lived.

He gave this on Wednesday at an emergency National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Abuja.

Mr Saraki explained that contrary to the views of many Nigerians, the outcome of the March 9 presidential election was a loss to the entire country and not just the PDP.

INEC had declared President Muhammadu Buhari of the APC winner of the election.

Mr Buhari, according to the electoral body, scored 15,191,847 votes. Atiku Abubakar of the PDP garnered 11,262,978 votes to finish as runner-up.

But in his response to the declaration, the PDP candidate said the result was unacceptable to him and he would challenge it in court.
“We said it many times here, that the worst to do is to do an election that as a country Nigeria will not be proud of.




“We have done an election that no doubt anybody and even those that think they have won are ashamed of the kind of election that we did.

“I think it is a shame to the country and to those that were given that responsibility to do. They have Saturday as their last opportunity to try as much as possible to reclaim part of their embarrassment to the country.

“How can a country like Nigeria, as the speaker said, Ghana has done it, even Congo, even Zimbabwe have done elections. And we say we do elections, with seven inconclusive. We did elections before, in 2015, we did it in 2011, 1999 and after so many years, this is what we can produce.

“It is not a loss to the PDP, it is to the country. It just shows the level of desperation. I have confidence that this will be shortlived and as such let us ensure on Saturday, that these five states that are ours remain within the PDP and INEC should for once do what is right.




“We have a great future ahead and I believe we will start that on Saturday to make sure that we defend those five states that are declared inconclusive,” Mr Saraki said.
