Threats: Secondary School Students Threaten To Kill Corpers In Kogi State (Photos)

Here is how a serving corper in Victory Model College,
Efodo – Okpo, Olamaboro L.G.A of Kogi State reports it:
It's no good news to hear that NYSC Corp Members are
treated with discontentment in Kogi State, especially in
remote local government like Olamaboro.

There have been cases of some drunk youths ganging up to
launch attack on corpers at their capital project sites,
accusing them of integrating strange norms into their
culture

Let me go straight to what I witnessed this morning. I woke
up this morning like every other boring mornings in the
village where I serve, dressed up, and went to the school.
On arrival, all the students were gathered at one corner
looking at me and the other Corp members, some with
satisfaction, while others with pity.

On getting to the class rooms, we saw some write-ups
directly warning me and other three(3) batch A Corp
members.

Four(4) of us (batch A) and two (2) other batch C corpers
are on hide out, praying God to intervene on the issue.
Batch A passing out parade (POP) comes up on the 13th of
February, and the question is why would people whose
lives we have impacted for close to one year decide to
reward us with death threats?
