Here's a bizarre email I got from a batch
A Corp member serving in Victory Model
College, Efodo - Okpo, Olamaboro L.G.A
of Kogi State. The mail below and the
threat written on a blackboard above
It's no good news to hear that
NYSC Corp Members are treated
with discontentment in Kogi State,
especially in remote local
government like Olamaboro.
There have been cases of some
drunk youths ganging up to launch
attack on corpers at their capital
project sites, accusing them of
integrating strange norms into their
culture
Let me go straight to what I
witnessed this morning. I woke up
this morning like every other
boring mornings in the village
where I serve, dressed up, and
went to the school. On arrival, all
the students were gathered at one
corner looking at me and the other
Corp members, some with
satisfaction, while others with pity.
On getting to the class rooms, we
saw some write-ups directly
warning me and other three(3)
batch A Corp members. The
pictures attached to this email will
help tell the story better (even with
the wrong English). Continue...
As am writing this report, four(4)
of us (batch A) and two (2) other
batch C corpers are on hide out,
praying God to intervene on the
issue.
Batch A passing out parade (POP)
comes up on the 13th of February,
and the question is why would
people whose lives we have
impacted for close to one year
decide to reward us with death
threats?
