When you find yourself in a bad situation. Always remember that the cover up is ALWAYS worse than the offense/crime. Imagine if Kemi Adeosun had called a press conference, and give the reasons she gave in her resignation letter, immediately the story broke. That would have neutralized the issue.
Many people do not have primary school leaving certificate because they left for secondary school from primary five. My father registered me and made me sit for the exam in those days in fear of a day like this. Those were the days of proper conduct.
Many elite people procured NYSC certificate for their children and many more are doing it right now. Many have their ward show up and register, allow the NYSC allawee syndicate get the pay monthly and their children will show at the end to collect Certificate.
The last time I wanted to go through the process of getting a driver’s license, I cried uncle after I showed up daily at Ojodu Berger from Lagos Island, for three consecutive days; got sunburned and thoroughly frustrated. To cut my losses, I called my big uncle and had my “capture” done in minutes. Actually my blood type says I am a universal donor 😁. Meanwhile, I have one of the rarest blood type.
While trying to get our daughter’s first Nigerian visa in New York, they demanded $65 or we come back with our infant daughter. That translated into another two to three days off work, flight tickets and hotel stay. What did we do? We paid grudgingly. I vowed not to do it again. So I went to Alagbon immediately we got to Nigeria. It took several back and forth and an unforgettable scatological terror (those things that defies every flush) in one of their toilets which I paid N20 to use, to change my mind. Again, I behaved myself, paid up and went home in peace, otherwise I may need to bring guarantors and evidence that my father and mother are indeed Nigerians. I did it again!
In Nigeria, obstacles are deliberately erected to make you pay and circumvent the process. Chaos are orchestrated to frustrate you into capitulation. In 2015, after a careful study of Nigeria and following the money kept by the monied class. I described Nigeria as a racket and a criminal enterprise. Nothing has changed.
Meanwhile, you read it here first; that NYSC requirement will be amended
