An eyewitness has gone viral after capturing a surprising scene at an NYSC orientation camp: an endless queue of corps waiting for nothing but pap and akara.

In a video that has since sparked debates on social media, dozens of young corps are seen lined up, all eager to grab a bite of the iconic Nigerian breakfast combo. The eyewitness, who filmed the moment, could hardly contain his shock, exclaiming:

“Just for pap and akara! This queue no dey end o!” Is the pap and akara made of gold?

The video has gone viral, attracting mixed reactions from viewers. While some s sympathize with the corps , joking that pap and akara is too irresistible to up, others point out the logistical challenges that NYSC camps face, especially when it comes to feeding large numbers of youth at once.

The long queue seems to symbolize not only the hunger for food but also the difficulties of daily life in the camp. For many, the ritual of queuing for breakfast has become a hallmark of the NYSC experience, with some taking to social media to share their own stories of similar long lines.

Normal thing oooo
Mummy food cant do it alone

Scrap nysc, na scam

No need of scrapping it, let them enjoy their 77k oo
Actually, it is the only way where government pay graduates in Nigeria

Bloggers una no go die better!

That queue is not for people waiting to get bread and akara

If u no fit queue, go buy food at Mammi...

Se ogi ati akara yen ma to bayi? 🥺

It's just a year scheme. They'd have 50+ more years to themselves to do whatever they wanna do later.

Person wey go make am, no be that one year go delay am

Every corper wants to go back home with the 12months 77k intact

If they have their way, they'll all trek to their PPA

Welcome to a new Nigeria

Poverty

That is Lagos state orientation camp at ìyànà Ìpájà. Nonsense programme. I took off my uniform and left it in one of the hostels after our POP. The only regret I had was my failure to reconnect with Tomi my primary school crush, and Tobi whom I saw later at winners chapel. I am still in search of a serious girlfriend. Interested ladies should send me a DM.

I just ed

Blackgold camp

Kaduna

Show us the pic of the people sharing the akara if this is not fake news

Someone will sit in his house and concoct one fake news then start circulating it

depends on whats on the menu that would determine the cue...
anyday they cook rubbish na mammy market de full....

Probably not cue for food...


They aren't with food flasks nor plates!

Na normal thing na.

Everyone that has ed through nysc orientation camp can relate to this. It's no new stuff.

Lol

That pap and akara must be sweet

At least they are queuing in an orderly fashion...!

That's not something common among Nigerians.


If such a thing was our culture as citizens, the stampede that happened in Ibadan would never have occurred last Yuletide.

The video is false. They're lining up for something else.

You should understand that most of us participated in NYSC. And you would never find this kind of crowd queuing for food let alone pap and akara when mammy market is there to serve your needs.

COMRADES are speechless

It was during NYSC I realised the satisfaction from eating a tasty meal

Imagine eating food that was completely tasteless for 3 weeks

If you nor carry money go camp, u nor go too enjoy yourself

I Kubwa that year.
Some people been dey form
Moya line jor

Hunger

This country nawaoh

Economy don hard ..shakara don end ..na wa o even with 70k ..

TTPAAR:
U skipped many camp food ... Gather here abeg.

And it wasn't even a case of plenty money

Look at the sort of suffering the selfish politicians of Nigeria are subjecting Nigeria's youths to.
By the way, whatever reason for which this NYSC program was invented, the program has become useless.

U skipped many camp food ... Gather here abeg.

Fools die

Na normal thing. I didn't go close to the kitchen during my time. It was steady mammy
