The situation at the NYSC orientation camp has caused significant distress among new corps members who arrived late but were denied entry. According to an anonymous source speaking with Daily Trust, many of these individuals, who traveled from distant eastern and southern states, encountered various travel delays that led to their late arrival.
Despite their efforts to reach the camp, they were refused entry due to the late hour, leaving them stranded and uncertain about their immediate future in the program. Frustration is high among the stranded corps members, some of whom had to endure long journeys and face additional challenges along the way.
One affected corps member shared their experience, describing how a vehicle breakdown and subsequent phone damage delayed their arrival. By the time they reached the camp, registration had already closed for the day, and no accommodations were available for late arrivals.
The corps members, now without funds and facing additional hardships, are urgently calling for assistance from the relevant authorities to address their predicament. They are seeking support to help resolve their immediate issues and ensure that their national service obligations are fulfilled without further complications.
