The 5 Kinds of People You Will Meet In NYSC Camp

The compulsory one-year youth service
is one that comprises the start of
post-university life.
While many people look forward to the
NYSC program, others like yours truly believe it’s
a waste of time. And would rather eat hot coals
than partake in it.
Alas, not many of us have the opportunity to by-
pass the service year as it is called. Two
categories of new corp members: Those who are
super excited and the relunctant ones. You may
have resigned your fate to serving Nigeria or
belong in the excited category of new corpers,
either way you must serve.
Here are a few people you’d run into during your
3 weeks orientation camp:
1. The ITKs (I-too-Know)
This group of new corp members have studied the
NYSC program like it’s an examination. They even
have know about NYSC than the commandant.This
group of people are walking and breathing NYSC
enclycopedias.
2. The SpiriKokos
These are the ones that will vehemently refuse to
wear the Khaki because it is trouser. They can be
recognized by the religious matter they are
constantly toting around.
3. The Romeo and Juliet
There is always that couple that meet in camp and
suddenly become attached at the hips. They are
always loved up for the full 3 weeks. At the end
of camp, their love usually disappears or not. Just
watch them.
4. The Attachees
This group don’t know where they belong. They
jejely watch the camp settings for a few days
before attaching themselves to the people in
power or those they can gain stuff from.
5. The JJCs (Johnny-just-come)
This group of people are always looking lost. Like
the entire NYSC program is an alien concept they
have yet to understand. Questions that a new
comer will ask, this group still persist in asking way
into their second week of camp.
