Saturday, August 22, 2015 was an ‘exceptional’ day for all youth corps members.
The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) had a compulsory headcount for all youth corps members in the country with a very short notice. This, probably to checkmate those who travel out of their serving states without properly informing necessary authorities.
However, an unidentified corper was seen at her local government wearing her wedding dress in order to be counted. It was said that failure to meet the headcount might warrant an extension. The bride decided to take the bull by the horn.
Meanwhile, Chukwuma Austin Dike, an Igbo corp member, who converted to Islam from Christianity, has written an open letter to all Nigerians. The Igbo corps member who shocked Nigerians by converting to a Muslim was serving as a Batch C corp member in Konshisha LGA Benue State when he made the conversion to fulfill his Buhari vow. Chukwuma has however come out to claim he’s been getting a lot of death threats. He has decided to tell Nigerians why he converted. Read the letter
