NYSC Orientation Camp 3

Just like it was a joke, they woke us up every morning by 5:20am or so, I mean, what????!!!!! At my age and “Status” and telling me to double up, I don’t get it, I mean if I walk I would still get there before those that haven’t even dressed up yet, but no I must double up 😃. 

The good part is for once, girls needed guys, I mean you would hear statements like please come closer, hold me, cover me, its not what you thinking dear, but the Cold was crazy with the breeze, we all loved each-other just to survive the cold, no forming at all. 

After which we do the joggings and all everyday except sunday though. 

And one time they announced they caught a thief and unfortunately the guy was from my platoon, I just hid my face as the platoon leader, remember I said leadership in this case is entirely different. 

Then I met this soldiers, two of them, obviously not older than my junior brother telling me to leave the food I was eating and rush to the parade ground, I was looking at them and continued my delicious indomie, before they started asking me if they are too small to talk to me, yes they are!!!!! But of course I didn’t say so, but literally i think i can beat them up, both of them, I guess they realized that this one is not normal and left...

Anyways I saw everyone on a line one morning and I was wondering what info I had missed until someone told me they announced to come get redeployment form, the line was damn, I am sure they are still on the line. 

what am I trying to say everyone wanted to leave, 

It was Hell, you need to see their food, sand is part of the spices, I fell sick, it was bad and yet I thought oh well this would aid my redeployment but nah!!! When the so called Clinic Heads of the Camps are not doctors and don’t know jack, i would still write my evaluations of NYSC in another post. 

I fell sick, my friends fell sick, etc. it was all bad, I met new friends, one of which was always there for me, and for which we laughed at a-lot together, then the so called social nights which was their excuse for people not to mix and do that mischievous things you think always happen in camp, then the awards night 😳, that was fun, you need to see how girls were growling at half naked guys soaked in oil for the Mr Macho contests. 

Anyways I couldn’t wait to get the hell out of there and the moment I was given my PPA letter I took the next cab outta that camp and next flight outta sokoto. 

Am I going back to kebbi? I don’t know yet...... 

remember I said “WE all want to redeploy”

My evaluation of the NYSC program would come up soon and why it should just be scrapped.
