My NYSC S-x Service
Part one
I was posted to an eastern state. Those three weeks I spent at NYSC camp were the worst three weeks of my life.
After camping, I got my PPA posting and guess what, I was sent to a government girls secondary school to do my service!!! I was beyond excited despite the location of the school.
Omoh, d school dey 4 village but I no care, I was just happy to be a king among women (girls sha).
Next, I and three other coppers went to the school to sign our acceptance letter. Omoh, the principal come say she no want any coppers oh, say coppers dey corrupt her girls too much. Small tin I for cry oh, why this woman won come turn my wine to water na? Which kain devil be dis na?.
We beg tire but d woman say we dey waste time say her decision na final. I then told the woman that I got a vision that God wants me to serve in that school.
She look me laff come say among all of us, na me she fear pass cuz her girls go pursue me.
Wow!!!… I Don hang. But, “u look very gentle n responsible” was her next comment. I then gave her an innocent smile to cement her first mistake (she wouldn’t believe I could f**k the assistant principal).
After a little brain-washing by me (trust me na), she accepted us and asked us to resume duty next week Monday……
I arrived the school on Monday morning feeling fly and ready for whatever. I was offered a table in the science lab which would serve as my office but I refused it cuz it was located at the junior section of the school.
Nawa oh, wetin I dey do for Junior section when bad girls full senior section. Abeg I wan deal with mature girls jor.
Lucky me, I got transferred to the senior section to teach ss1 and offered a table at an office close to ss3 class.
Baba God, u too much!!. I walked into the office meant for three staff and met a female teacher who was busy and didn’t notice when I walked in.
“Good morning madam” I said. Then she looked up at me and replied..
“Copper, Good morning. You’re welcome”
Literally, my heart
