Bros, I hail o. I'm currently in camp and I agree with you that the situation is not as bad as some will make it seem.

Please, what part of Kano is the best to serve in? The urban or the rural areas?

How is the camp boss?
I'll get there soon.

seyigiggle:
Contact me if you have a colleague in need of PPA in Kano.

Hello. I don't know if this opportunity is still available. I've been posted to Kano for NYSC, I know no one there or even in the North.
I'd definitely be needing a place for PPA in Kano.
Many thanks for your help and opportunity.

Well I never.
Seeing a poem about NYSC. About Kano. All the way from Cross River. And then you stayed back. WOW.

I've been posted to Kano (Karaye Camp), going from Ibadan. I'm still in shock.
I do hope it turns out to be a wonderful and fulfilling experience?

How is it for you from orientation camp to PPA stress?

Lol, I've been in KANO since July last year for NYSC too and it's pretty good.

I will like to share some things with you though, if you feel like redeploying, apply for the redeployment on camp, collect the form and fill it

2)If you don't want to redeploy but will like to be posted to the city, be active with activities on camp, join OBS or the brigade team and above all, be close to your platoon leader and let him know yoh will like to be posted to sabon gari, Nassarawa or Fagae and co.

3)There is another method I can't share publicly.

Above all, kano is okay

Could I privately share the third method.
I sent you a PM btw

IamAtikulate:
Nothing wrong with Kano.

You might even fall in love with the state if you serve with all your mind. Hausas are not what we think of them in the East.

The problem is not even Kano, the problem is getting to Kano from the East.

The road is NOT SAFE.

ABUJA TO ZARIA road is now something else. Please use Ifeanyichukwu, Welfare or Landstar if you can't afford a flight.

I love North and I loving visiting them, but anything that will make me run through that road is a hell no.

If you must redeploy, it should be because of that road, but if you have the mind to see it through, you might end up a millionaire if you open your eyes to the opportunities there.

It's easier to become a millionaire hustling in the North than any part of the South, Lagos inclusive.

I love Kano.

It made me and several other forward thinking umudiala (Igbos) millionaires.

If you must serve in Kano, leave the towns and go for the villages. It's where the money is.

The locals will make you love Hausas not the city dwellers.

Ha! And I'm going by road. God be with me.
By the way,you're the first person I've seen espousing going to the villages as opposed to the city in Kano.
If as you say, the village fosters wealth and prosperity better than the city. I wouldn't mind. But then....

You should go there mhen.

I served there mhen.


You will really enjoy there mhen.


There are so many Igbos and Yorubas there mhen.


Millions of southerners and Christians there mhen.

Particularly in sabon gari mhen.


When I got posted to Kano, I wasn't happy.

But I told myself, what is the essence of being born in my state and during NYSC, I still feel that I should serve in my state?


Why not go outside my state and experience life somewhere else at least for one year?


It could be that serving far from my state is an opportunity to experience a different kind of culture and tradition.


When I arrived Kano, I heard it from people there that:

Kano is a place which when you get posted to, you are not happy about it.


But when you reach Kano, you don't want to leave.


I thought it was a lie until I discovered that it was true.


It was as much as I could do not to stay back permanently in Kano after service.



In Kano, I didn't even feel I was in the north because every where I went, I saw people from my state.


During Christmas in those days, you would see how thousands of people would just be traveling to the south and luxurious buses would travel almost like a convoy because of the number of people who would be traveling.


When the buses park along the way, maybe in Lokoja or Abuja, there is nothing that can compare to the joy of mixing up with many other passengers while eating and drinking.

Oh the joy of those days.


There was no Boko Haram, bandits and kidnappers in those days mhen.

Bro, I'd like to hear more on this.
I was posted to Kano too with stream 2 this March.
I don't even know where to start from. I really want to redeploy but then everyone has nice stories about the place.
Any advice? Especially with securing a decent PPA in a not-too conservative area.

Olamhen:
Don't mind most of these guys giving you negative reply about north or kano, most of them I've never been to the north. I'm currently in kano and I've been here for about 4 years. I moved here after my nysc in bauchi which is 4 hours journey from kano. Bauchi was one of the state that suffered from the hand of boko haram when it all started but through out my 1+ in buachi everything went very fine with not a single security challenge. So don't let anything or anyone deceive or confuse you with any ignorant comment here. Kano is the best state in the north when it comes to comerce, just see kano like the Lagos of the north or the aba of the east. If you have the intention of establishing a business or thinking of a cheap cost of living then think of kano. Except for the house rent which is somehow expensive but still affordable because it still depends on the area.
One thing is that you just respect yourself when it comes to religion. Do your own and let them do their. There are areas like sabon Geri or badawa or brigade where you will see majority of southerners. In fact if you enter sabon Geri you won't believe you're in the north.
So in a north shell� you're welcome to the north, come and explore and I bet you, you won't want to go back to the east. I have igbo padi here that we work together he's from enugu and we role together wella no kasala

Good news finally. I've also been posted to Kano state from the SouthEast.
If you can help a jjc like me, I'd be immensely appreciative.

Obalexy:
I never regretted my decision of remaining back in Kano. I was opportuned to serve at 3 brigade barracks. The connections I made there have continued to pave way for me till now

I'm about to embark on this journey to the unknown due to NYSC. If you can be of assistance during my time in Kano. I'll really appreciate.

Bro. I'm in the same predicament.
Born and Bred in the SouthEast.
Attended Uni in the SouthWest.
And NYSC decided to throw me to Kano.

I'm sceptical, I plan on redeploying. But then,I've seen people on various threads speak highly about Kano, once you respect their religion and culture which I intend to do.

If I get a good PPA within Sabon-Gari, Nassarawa and Fegge axis, I might just stay in Kano.

So basically, anyone that can help. Or can advise me on what to do. I'll appreciate. Pm me
