Not too
long ago, I wore the green kaki of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) of
Nigeria for one last time. I was also a batch C corps member. Today, thousands
of Nigerian youth around the country will be wearing their own kaki for the
last time. There is excitement all around from them, friend and family alike.
Many cannot believe they have made it thus far in life. Some were not given any
chance, but today they seem to have surprised even themselves. For some, it is
a relief of some sought from the stress of service year and a release into the
world for good. Which ever is the case, we are good to go... *SmileS*.
Another
set of corps members are passing out today, Thursday 2nd July 2015. I
can imagine what the feeling is like for them. For those of them that will read
this post, I ask: “Are you good to go?” I
my blog mother happens to be one of them. I am so happy for all of you as you pass
out from this phase of life.
