The final days at NYSC orientation camp, Umunya, Anambra State were quite emotional. The three weeks bonding has birthed emotional ties which degenerated into pregnated tears. Grab your chair to enjoy my gist.

OBS gave me privilege to midnight raid revelations of the soldiers. A certain married lady was caught in the bush being straffed by an unknown guy. Before the soldiers could work up to them, they had disappeared like mess but her wedding rings and pant didn't go with them🤦🏽‍♂

The OBS news crew were invited to pick the rings and pant and announce them as lost but found, which I graciously did but the owner didn't own up.

Another devastating story was that of a lady who out of the need to get a boyfriend by force fell in love with a guy whose girlfriend from university was also on camp. This lady thought she had found love until the guy's birthday.

The lover girl paid for birthday shoutout for her newly found love at the OBS with #2000 for continuous announcement until the real girlfriend showed up and doubled the pay for us at the OBS. Brethren, pressmen were pressed by oppressed intents. We announced the two like that🤫

After the announcements, the birthday party scheduled for evening in mami market ended in tears. The old girlfriend was a bottle breaker and indian hemp smoker. She didn't arrive until it was time for the celebrant to dance with his love.

I was the MC of the party. I already had the feeling that may God allow our gentle soul to rest in peace by the times soldiers catch us holding a night party after the light out bugle.

As soon as the lover girl was holding to the waist of the celebrant, noise of bottle breaking emerged from unknown destination and everyone couldn't wait to watch the end of the movie. Meanwhile, the soldiers were laying ambush for night crawlers.

The soldiers have already been tipped that some bloody civilians were flaunting camp rules by holding party. As soon as everyone started rushing out of the mami market, they were asked to go on their knees. How will I escape🙆🏽‍♂️

I took the OBS public address system with me for likely use at the birthday party but couldn't use it because the party started very late. So I was struggling with the box when others were on their knees.

Soldiers asked me to join the punished fellows, I argued that my case was different and that the public address system was with me for a technical reason. When one of them sighted me as the OBS man, he released me in peace. Help me thank my fellow corpers. They didn't kobalise me

Madam lover girl landed at the clinic after the late night soldier drills and punishment. Madam bottle breaker was still boasting of boyfriend ownership and Uncle boyfriend was confused.

Some female corps members also dated soldiers, police officers, civil defence and NYSC officials to influence their posting to juicy areas. But it ended in tears.

On the final day on camp which was the day posting of PPA, a lot of lost and found items were displayed and continuously announced by the me at the OBS. Several wedding rings, head covers and underwears were claimed quietly by the owners.

Sebi you remember the wedding rings that we kept initially? It was claimed by the owner. Her husband came to pick her thereafter and I was feeling sorry for the man.

Several ladies have been taken advantage of while on camp. Even those that appeared to be noblest of all had their dark secrets in my palm but as a news man, I had to bottle it up. What happened in Venice remains in Venice.

Morals: Don't lose guard even when you are in an unfamiliar environment. Someone is always watching.
