Episode 2: Beauty Out of Chaos

Does Nigeria’s National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) still achieve what it set out to do? In this episode, Tobi and Gbadebo tackle the NYSC scheme from two perspectives: one who hasn’t served, and one who has. Gbadebo shares the reality of orientation camp, the highs and lows of the service year, and the unexpected ways the experience shaped him. Together, they question whether the program still holds value in fostering ethnic unity and religious tolerance or if it’s time to go in a different direction. Enjoy! This is a public episode.
