A female NYSC corper has taken to social media to share her difficulties in securing a Place of Primary Assignment (PPA), shedding light on the challenges faced by graduates of certain courses.
In a now-viral TikTok video shared on her account, @Ndayeabasim, the corper, who studied Biochemistry, revealed that she has faced repeated rejections when trying to secure a PPA. She attributed the difficulty to her field of study, highlighting how certain disciplines are often seen as less “in-demand” for service placements.
“You see that thing wey they dey use tell us say you are studying a stupid course, is when you are going for NYSC that you will know. To find where they go accept you for service, you go suffer,” she explained in the video.
Despite the setbacks, she concluded her post with determination, stating that she would continue her search for a PPA. The candid clip has since drawn a flood of reactions from TikTok users, with many empathizing with her struggle.
