Corps Member Faces Threat from NYSC Official After Criticizing Tinubu
A corps member serving in Lagos State has raised the alarm after allegedly receiving threatening messages for criticizing President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
In a viral TikTok video, the corps member, known as @talktoraye, expressed frustration over the rising cost of living and economic hardship under Tinubu’s government. She openly called out the president, describing him as a terrible leader and questioning what steps the government was taking to address the country’s worsening economic situation.
She also complained about the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) scheme, saying it hasn’t been helpful since she spends more than the allowance she receives.
“If more Nigerians speak up about what we’re facing, maybe things will change,” she said. “I don’t know if there’s any other president as terrible as you, but you are such a terrible president.”
She described how the cost of food and essentials keeps increasing every week, leaving her overwhelmed. “I went to buy foodstuff, and everything has gone up again. A crate of eggs now costs N6,500. It makes no sense because I remember when eggs were N800,” she said.
She also mentioned the rising cost of utility bills and transportation. “After shopping, I got home to find out the security and NEPA bills have doubled. It’s crazy. Every penny I make goes into paying bills. Even taking an Uber with a friend now costs N25,000. Why is everything so expensive?”
After the video gained attention, the corps member said she started receiving threatening messages, allegedly from NYSC officials. She later posted another video where she was reportedly on a call with an NYSC official who scolded her and demanded that she delete the video.
“Are you normal? Keep quiet and take down that video,” the official allegedly told her.
Nigerian comedian Seyi Law takes to social media as he defends President Bola Tinubu. The comedian stated that the president has done a lot in his administration and claimed that Nigeria is safer and economically sound under his administration.
He then compared how things now to past years under the administration of others, and shared how things were bad. He claimed that now the economy is stabilized.
“Nigeria is safer now than 10 years ago. This government has killed more bandits than any government in Nigeria since the time of Jonathan. When last have you heard of bomb blast in Nigeria?”
