I remember the first time I saw my call up letter,I felt like the whole world had trembled on my feet. I felt sad and angry, ready to pour out my anger on anybody who came my way.
I remember not being serious about the whole camp thing anymore. I remember buying all my things a day before leaving.
At first,I was a bit confused on how I was going to get to the camp in Benue state. I remember going to the NYSC section on NL searching for corp members who were posted to the same state. Luckily for me, I found a bunch of then and I was added to a whatsapp group which was created by one of the monikers.
I remember silently following the group up,hardly ever dropping comments. I found out they were going to be leaving on the 25th of April which was on a Monday, and as at Monday, I had not bought a thing, so I crossed traveling with them out of the plan..
My brother booked a flight for me to Enugu even if I kept telling him that Abuja was faster but he said no,that Enugu was closer. So he finally booked the flight on a Tuesday by 8am. I received a call from my uncle who works with the air force that there was an air force flight leaving for makurdi that Wednesday so I grabbed the opportunity.
I left for Benue the next day and I arrived in Makurdi less than an hour.

FIRST EXPERIENCE IN BENUE
When we landed in the air force base, I came down looking confused trying to call my uncle. And at that moment I heard a masculine voice.
"You, come here" I turned around to look at who was talking.
"Yea, are you not Valerie, D****a's niece?" he asked and I answered immediately,
"Yes I am" and that was when I got a text from my uncle telling me that his friend would help me down to Wannune.
My uncle's friend helped me with my extremely big box which I later started regretting I carried. While driving me down to wannune, his friend asked where I would be crashing that night, I told him that I would be sleeping in camp. He started asking questions like would they attend to me, telling me I could sleep in his place. I told him that they should attend to me. This was when the story changed. He told me my uncle didn't need to know and I just knew that something was up with this man. He started asking questions like why I was acting so uptight, asking if I had a boyfriend. I stared at him straight up and told him "i am not in a relationship and I would be okay when I get to camp", he dropped me without any further comments.

Someone asked you if you could passed the night at his place and so? Na new thing?

SECOND EXPERIENCE IN BENUE
.I finally got to camp and we were later attended to in the evening. There was a massive cue that evening. I had to drag my big box around for screening and searching. All I can say is, it wasn't easy. We finally got our foams and we were assigned to our various hostels, I had to pay a boy to help me carry it down because of the distance. I paid the kid and arranged my bed. The foam was flat as a slate . My battery was already showing red and I had to climb up the hill to charge. I couldn't wait for it to charge up, so I told the guy charging that I would drop my power bank instead. An action I later regretted ,I would have dropped my phone instead.

I woke up early the next day which was on the 27th ,and prepared for registration that day. I put my phone in my left pocket and went up the hill to photocopy some things and this was when my phone got stolen, in the midst of the crowd. I noticed when I tried bringing out money to pay the guy at the photocopying center. My phone was gone. I tried calling it but it wasn't connecting, I was left without any means of communication.

.

babe come and finish what you started. lol . check your p.m

THIRD EXPERIENCE IN BENUE

After my phone went missing, I went to Mami market to search for a small phone to buy, luckily for me I found a phone to buy, I begged the guy to go out to town, so he could help me retrieve my two lines. He did and I was back on line even if the phone wasn't a browsing phone.
The next few days were quite horrible. The drilling, standing under sun for hours. It was pretty bad until I started making friends. I met a few guys on Nl, they were really nice. My roommates were quite accommodating too. I hated the drilling in camp. I hated the fact there was no time to breathe. The only thing I loved about camp was the fact I got to make enough friends. I participated in my platoon drama and became a bit popular. I met more people, but I wasn't planning on getting too attached because I planned on redeploying.
On the last day in cam p when our posting letter came out,I got the disappointment of my life. My redeployment didnt work and I got posted to jos electricity distribution PLC in makurdi.

MY FOURTH EXPERIENCE IN BENUE STATE

I thought that the stress was going to end in camp but I couldn't be more wrong. My real stress started when I was out of camp. I learnt two things, you might be posted to a good place but that doesn't mean you would end up serving there. The second thing I learnt was that Makurdi was dead hot. So we left camp on a Friday, we had to wait until Monday to report to our various ppa. Meanwhile the lady who had been working on my redeployment ish* kept calling to tell me it wasn't possible that I wasn't redeployed and that she was going to push further until I was redeployed. The real truth was that I had lost hope already.
Well back to the ppa stuff. I woke up early on Monday morning and went down to JED PLC where I was posted. I was told to wait for the other corpers to arrive. I waited until a male corper came to join in the waiting. After waiting for long,we concluded that it was just the both of us. We went to meet the secretary and she led us to her boss's office. He took our posting letter and then asked us to come back by 1pm. We left. I went home and was back by 1pm ,same with the other guy. So we went to the office and we were giving the acceptance letter, I was to work as their PRO,and was goin to be paid 10k without accommodation which I was okay with. I had already gone to the local govt. about to start my documentation when I saw a staff from JED who came to inform myself and the other guy that they just got a directive from their head office that they shouldn't accept any corper and that was it. My haunting for a new ppa began.

MY FIFTH EXPERIENCE

I had a friend who was in the same shoe as me. We both went from place to place reason because they couldn't pay or accommodate. We had almost lost all hope until we found Benue hotel. They accepted us and were ready to pay 10k with accommodation. We went to the Secretariat so we could begin processing but they refused to post us there, telling us that Benue hotel had rejected most of the corpers that were sent to them,so we needed to find another option. A week was almost gone and I was still in Benue state.
When all hope was lost,we found out bout Benue printing and publishing cooperation where they don't pay,they don't accommodate and corp members only go to work once a week This was just what I needed. I went to this place got a request letter only for me to be bounced down to a school where they pay only 5k a month with no accommodation. I took it because I was tired and I finished documenting on Friday. Friday night I packed my box preparing for my trip to lag on Saturday morning not knowing I was going to be facing another issue.
