To be honest, the only opportunity some people may ever get- to live with people from every part of Nigeria- is NYSC camp.

It’s also a place where things can go south real quick.

Here are a few tweets that’d give you an idea of how NYSC camp can be:

1. Disclaimer.

The greatest clarion call in Nigeria presently isn't the national or NYSC anthem. It's "Eyin omo wobe"…

2. Because, sometimes abracadabra can take place.  

So they did Mr Macho and Miss NYSC last night. Guy who won Mr Macho won a TV. Someone's already stolen it. #NySCBatchB2015

3. Somebody can’t come and die because of English.

Guy during obstacle course: see dat babe dey form Unk Ogan
Me: wetin?
Guy: UNK OGAN. Dat wrestler guy

4. When they call you animal and they actually mean it.

5. Material things are not important. Never forget.

I knew shit was real in NYSC camp when someone's engagement ring got stolen.

6. When you take R-Kelly’s ‘If I could turn back the hands of time’ too seriously.

7. When you somehow think Kano and Heathrow are the same thing.

Don't come back home with a foreign accent. It's just NYSC camp…… Respect yourself

8. No friend in this life.

The same guys that will be in your room will be plotting how to leave camp with your phones during the last day of NYSC camp 😭😭

9. Same batch. Different levels.

As a corper 3 years ago. A girl i was eyeing then told me my Nysc allawee could not buy her office chair. https://t.co/bNiH42xfWe

10. It’s the little things that can change your destiny.

11. When you are the author and finisher of full charge.
