The gift that NYSC gave me 😍🇳🇬💖

 


Ladies and gentlemen, meet Rofiat, my jewel of inestimable value and the beautiful lady gifted to me as a reward for service to my fatherland. Rofiat and I served in the same PPA at Ipetumodu, Osun State. Even though we graduated from the same school (UNILORIN), we never crossed each other's path back on campus. 

I was the first Batch A1 corper to report for work in my PPA, few weeks after I had resumed, on that auspicious day, around 5pm, I was with the SS3 class taking them Mathematics (extra lesson), all other corpers had already left, just only me and one other corper were around, then I noticed someone alighting from the bike - it was a new corps member coming to report for work. That day I forgot I was even in class with students, because I got carried away while staring at her. I was mesmerized by her beauty 😍 so much that I went out of the class to attend to her.

I asked her to sit down and wait for the principal. Then I went back to the class to round up with the students and I went back to her and I started talking with her. She revealed that she graduated from Unilorin and she was from Ilorin too. I said I was also from Ilorin and I graduated from Unilorin also. That's how we started gisting till our principal met us there, be even asked if we had known each other before because of the way we were gisting. So I requested her number and that's how it all started. 

Everything happened within a month of meeting each other, I think it happened so fast because we were in the same PPA and since then it has been a wonderful 9months journey with her. 

During those periods I've met her parents and she has met mine and there's no objection from anyone so far. With God by our side our plan is to tie the knot as soon as I can get a job,so that we can live happily ever after.

Long live NYSC

Long live Ilorin kingdom 

Long live NIGERIA 😍❤️

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...

How we found love in NYSC Benue - Rafiah and Yusuff

Ride with me back to January 2017, NYSC called and we were posted to Benue. A few days after camp started, a friend who had met us individually said to Sodiq he found a lady from Ibadan who could be his match for ‘bad mouth’ and he asked to meet. Thankfully, we were in same Platoon 10 so it was easier for him to introduce us. Some bants here and there, well you should know who won. Fast forward to January 31, 2017, we happened to sit next to each other during SAED class and his phone gallery scroll revealed we have a mutual friend and that kicked off endless hours of talks and bants. While people were running away from SAED, we turned it to our rendezvous to nurture our friendship. Unfortunately, Sodiq got posted to Vandeikya LG while I got posted to Apa LG. I remember we asked one of the vendors in Maami market how far the two locations are to each other and the guy laughed at us for not sticking to the ‘don’t fall in love in camp’ mantra. Technically, we were just trying to nurture o...

How a random photograph brought us together

  My wife and I met in the most unplanned and unconscious way during our NYSC orientation camp at Ede in Osun State, Batch B, Stream 1, in 2017. She was in Platoon 3 while I was in Platoon 4. We didn’t know each other then.  Our first encounter was during the man o' war drill. I had asked my camp photographer to capture random moments, and by chance, he took a picture that had both of us. Funny enough, I didn’t know her name. Life has its way of working things out. After camp, we were both posted to the same CDS group—Dance and Drama in Osogbo, Osun State. The first day I saw her there, I immediately recognized her from the photo. I wanted to tell her, but I was afraid of embarrassing myself.  She looked so sophisticated, especially knowing she was a foreign student from Houdegbe North American University, Benin Republic, where she studied Accounting. I, on the other hand, was just a simple guy from Ogun State Institute of Technology, Igbesa, where I studied Electrical an...
