Corp Stephen opened the floor for the discussion by saying people who are found unfaithful with their marriage partners are mostly the carriers of the deadly disease.

Corp Doyin opined that HIV/AIDS is a way of punishing people who engage in illicit sex by God.

Corp Yemi said young people of nowadays especially boys with their uncontrollable urge for sex should use Condom while engaging in sex because it is the only way to ‘play safe’.

Corp Stephen immediately countered Corp Yemi’s opinion and said sex is only meant for procreation for married people and not mainly for pleasure.

Corp Femi said it is not only through sex that people contract HIV/AIDS but also through the use of unsterilized sharp instruments like needles, blades and even the use of the general barber’s clipper. He also said that only prayer can save one from contracting the disease because even one’s fiancé or fiancée many be carrying the disease without the knowledge of the other.

Corp  kingsley (CLO) also corroborated corp Femi’s point by saying HIV/AIDS are in two stages - Early Stage and Advanced stage. He said through research, the early stage of the disease is always unnoticeable and which may be unknown to someone engaged to the infected person. He said the Advanced stage is the AIDS which manifests when one’s immune system to disease has been totally defeated.

Corp Okoro said “the world is moving too fast and the technology world is fostering the spread of the dreaded disease through the use of Black Berry phone to ping one’s HIV/AIDS”

The discussion started with Corp Taiwo Bankole who said the NYSC scheme should be restructured in its posting policy; she called for postings around one’s region or state of residence. This Opinion was countered by Corp Stephen who said if the scheme was restructured in its posting policy won’t achieve the NYSC aims and objectives of fostering National Unity.

In support of Corp Stephen’s contribution, Corp Okoro said the NYSC scheme should be sustained due to the newly increased Monthly Allowance package and also said it would be more appealing if corp members could be posted to organizations where their discipline would be relevant.

The LGI said the discussion session was informative and educative.

Mr lasaki jokingly said, that if the NYSC is scrapped, it won’t have effect on him because he has an edge of experience over us but would have a direct pressure on the labour market as more people would be thrown back to it.

NYSC SCHEME: THE ANTICIPATED MOBILIZATION, EXPERIENCE AND 'LIFE AFTER'.

Flashing back to some 24, 12 ,10 , 5 months back depending on your batch and you will realise you were still back at the Orientation camp at Iseyin,Oyo State heeding to the everyday morning call at 4:00am in the unfriendly and cold weather to observe the compulsory parades which doesnt spare you from participating in the drills, Man O' War activities, Mountaineering exercise etc.

After the 3 weeks Orientation course, you knew your fate in the posting letters handed over to you as regards where you will spend the next 10 months of your service year; unaware of the destination, welfare package and to live on a meagre amount of money given to you as Monthly allowance for your upkeep through out the service year. Luckily for you, you were involved in the 2011 Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) registration and Voting exercise in which you were handsomely paid for, but if we are asked about the whereabouts of the pay today; many would be downcast like a novice tailor without any answers forthcoming...

Now, that the service is over, you faced with the real defination of LIFE where you are considered responsible enough to fend for yourself, but the question arises, 'Am I going to get a Job immediately? ' 'What if the traveling arrangement overseas for my Masters' degree flops?' What if my uncle fails me in securing a job in his colleague's firm?

Good News to you!!! Your fears are over,Though traveling abroad to further your studies is great is but it is not until travel abroad before you start to make something good out of your life, but you have to discover your interest, skills and build on them.

Ø  NYSC 2010 BATCH ‘C’ PROJECT

The CDS coordinator had reached an agreement with the house based on majority votes for the implementation of the completion of the uncompleted toilet building at a school at Academy, Ibadan.

This was the agreement before the LGI stepped in and made us to understand that many feet would be trampled upon if we are to do a project based on votes. He sampled the opinion of those who didn’t support the agreement to make suggestion of what could be done.

Corp Sandra suggested on distribution of NYSC customized textbooks which the LGI kicked against due to the fact that it was the last batch’s final Project which can’t be repeated.

In the absence of any other idea, the LGI supported the initial project and said it would be implemented by hiring committed labourers to do the work.

The CDS coordinator said it would only take the labourers 6 days to complete the work:

                             

Carpenter    – 2 days

                              Bricklayer   - 3 days
