A photo
showing some members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) in the office
of the resident of Nigeria has caught the attention of Nigerians on social
media.
What
made it more captivating is that the two corp members present in the photo are
Buhari's daughter and the son of Vice President Yemi Osibanjo.
They
were report6edly having their Youth service at the presidential villa where
they have access to various allowances and undisclosed bonuses
But
other young Nigerians who have served in very remote communities in Nigeria
have been reacting to the photo and throwing light on the agony that some corp
members go through in their place of primary assignment (PPA)
The
preferential treatment given to children of the rich and wealthy when it comes
to NYSC posting has been a burning issue that has not been addressed publicly.
Some people see it as a
courtesy because they do not expect that the Son or daughter of the resident of
Ngeri should be serving in a place less deserving of their parents' status.Memo Naija respects every copyright policies.
