A serving member of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) was recently captured on video, selling meat pies along an unspecified expressway.
The video has since gone viral on social media platforms.
The unidentified corps member was seen walking along the busy expressway, dressed in an NYSC khaki uniform and holding a clear bucket filled with freshly baked meat pies.
The footage, though lacking information about the member’s Place of Primary Assignment (PPA) and state of service, highlights the realities faced by many NYSC members as they navigate the often uncertain path to post-graduation employment.
The video quickly gained traction on platforms such as TikTok, attracting a multitude of reactions from viewers.
Some social media users expressed sympathy for the corps member, placing the blame squarely on the government for the lack of adequate employment opportunities for graduates.
