We met in camp and I jokingly called her my wife before my friends - Read πŸ‘‡ the love story of Mr πŸ’ Mrs. Shonaike




I graduated from school in 2015 but my result processing was delayed until 2018. I was depressed because my neighbors started doubting the claim that I've graduated as I was yet to go for NYSC.

I was finally mobilized in January 2018. A friend saw my name on the graduating list and called me after which I confirmed from another friend. 

I was happy on getting the news. Yes a proud moment in my life when I was deployed to Akwa-Ibom State.

Three months later, a new batch - Batch C Stream 1, were deployed and after their orientation camp, my church (Winners Fellowship) chose me among the people to go to camp to bring new corps member to their PPA.

While I was in the camp standing and carrying a placard displaying my PPA, a young beautiful lady approached me and showed me her PPA letter and I told her that she's at the right place, I helped with her luggage and we embarked on the journey back to my PPA and on getting to our PPA late night I told my fellow corps members jokingly that I brought my wife and no one should go close to her ...Lols😁😁

So one fateful day, I went up to her and told her my intention and we both agreed to be friends ...lo and behold our love life beginsπŸ˜‰ and this beautiful lady convinced me that there are still RESPONSIBLE, PRAYERFUL and RESPECTFUL ladies out there and I made up my mind that I won't let her go because she motivates me everyday to be a better version of myself.

Three months after my P.O.P (October 2019), I got a job! πŸ˜ƒ

One glorious day, I told her I want to meet her family and we both met, it's now looking so real🀩🀩🀩

Fast forward to 2020, I'm a little bit comfortable; I can take care of myself and my wife and got my own apartment ...then I told my parents I want to get married and the planning began.

We got marriedπŸ’ on a memorable day which was on her birthday October 10,2020. So every October 10, we will celebrate her birthday and our wedding anniversary.

Delay is not denial! Long live NYSC!

The beautiful NYSC love story of Mr and Mrs Enujeke 😍😍😍

 My husband and I met in Niger State in 2009. He graduated from Delta State University, Abraka, and arrived at camp early. I graduated from Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria. Unlike him, I got camp late in the afternoon and wasn’t able to complete my registration that day but secured hostel accommodation that night. The next day, after morning drills, I finished my registration where we first met. He was among the corps members assisting the new arrivals. We discovered we were in the same platoon— the great Platoon 8 πŸ˜ƒ —and from the same state, Delta State. However, I was born and raised in the north, while he had lived all his life in the south. We would walk together to morning drills and head to Mami Market with friends before resting at the hostel. What began as friendship during camp grew into feelings over the three weeks of orientation. When PPA postings were announced, he was assigned to COE in Minna, while I was posted to Bosso LG Secretariat. Despite being in different LGAs...

How I 'dramatically' met my wife in NYSC Sokoto

  It all started on Wednesday, 2nd February 2022. I was posted to Sokoto for NYSC camp, but I had planned to be a “ghost Corper” since I lived in Kebbi, just two hours away. My plan was to only show up for clearances and return home. I was posted to Shehu Shagari College of Education (SSCOE), Sokoto, for my PPA with my friend Firdausi.  After documentation, we were to choose a CDS group. Firdausi picked Freedom of Information Vanguard (FOIV) because it was close to the Corper’s lodge and advised me to do the same, so I did. I still wanted to relocate to Kebbi, but Firdausi encouraged me to attend CDS at least a few times to know how things worked. One Wednesday, we trekked to the CDS venue at Bado Quarters. I arrived late.  As I entered, I saw her—Saudat. A calm, beautiful young lady. I froze thinking, “If she agrees to date me, I’ll marry her after NYSC,” but another thought said, “Forget it, girls this fine here are probably married already.” Throughout the meeting, I k...

We met in NYSC and our fathers were friends from wayback πŸ’–πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬πŸ˜

  We met precisely in 2019 during the INEC training for corps members towards the 2019 Elections at Government Secondary School Apata, Ibadan. I noticed her from a distance however I couldn’t summon the courage to speak with her but with the help of one of my friends who was also serving at that time I was able to speak with her.  She was a bit reserved but she communicated well with my friends and I. We had our first outing on February 14, 2019. The ride wasn’t a very smooth one but we became friends and gradually we got closer and we became lovers.  The success of our relationship can be traced to many things. First, although we are both Yorubas - she (Kwara State) while I am from Ekiti - after our service year, we both reside and work in Ilorin - which made the relationship smoother. Another factor which made me conclude that God's hand was indeed in our relationship was that we found out that my father and her father knew each other from way back. This made our union...
