At exactly 8:35pm last Saturday, i did my final clearance - Yipee!. I lost 4kg last week, no thanks to NYSC and making me jump round Lagos state in the name of final clearance. I'm glad its over. But as expected it didn't end without drama.
A female corp member frustrated from waiting...
I'm passing in about 2 weeks. It only makes sense that i chronicle some of my encounters with Lagos ageberos [motor park tout, bus conductors :p] before i leave.
The other week, an agbero at the mini park close to Lekki Phase 1 gate called me 'ashewo' and i grabbed his shirt. Surprised? I was...
I think i'll be passing out less than one month from today - October 6, 2016. I'm no longer checking my calendar everyday. I'm relaxed and ready for some of the uncertainties life may throw my way. I will never be ready for all of it but i hope i never fall face down. Today is not about me...
My service year ends soon - i'm so excited, wishing i could make the days roll away even faster. It has been a good year but i can't wait to be free from weekly CDS meetings. I can't wait to never wear government Khaki trousers again. But before i leave, i have decided to embark on a serious...

Almost two weeks ago, i narrowly escaped death but was saved by my NYSC Khaki uniform.
Okay, that first paragraph was an exaggeration but i did get saved by my Khaki. The incident i'm referring to happened about two weeks ago, on a bright Monday morning. I was to have my monthly clearance that...
I like new people. I find them intriguing [even if i googled them before the first meeting] until they move their seat next to mine :( . Nobody should be able to see my computer screen from their seat - nobody! . My space has been invaded, totally invaded by aliens from Obafemi Awolowo...
Soldier go, soldier come. With Batch A Corps members gone, my Batch - Batch B has been tasked with taking up executive positions. Beautification CD group had their election last Monday. It was very interesting watching the candidates struggle with their big big grammar and fake smiles.
My...
Most corp members posted to Lagos from other states have one key worry “accommodation”. This morning during early morning lectures, I sat with a small group who extensively discussed the problem.
Some intend to stay with family, others plan on staying with friends but some like myself have no...
