Nysc, scrap or continue?

   The National youth service corps  (NYSC) is an organization set up by the Nigerian  government to involve the country's graduates in the development of the country. Si nce 1973, graduates of  universities  and later polytechnics have been required to take part in the National Youth Service Corps program for one year.  This is known as national service year.       There has been some reservations about this scheme by some individuals and they think Nysc should be scrapped. Currently in my service year, I think personally that nysc is fun  and also has a lot to learn from though stressful. The question now is, Do you think Nysc should be scrapped or should continue. Have your say on the comment box. 

The present state of Tin can Apapa

Considered one of the main source of income of Nigeria,  Tin Can Island Port was built in 1981 and opened in 1997. In 1991, the Nigerian Ports Authority was responsible for operating the port, and they made it a modern functioning port. Tin Can Island Port is the second busiest Port in Nigeria after apapa port, yet the road to these ports is more like a road to hell leading to the damage of cars and even loss of lives. See more photos below...  The question now is, what is the federal government doing about this?
