Employers use corpers as slaves says nysc coordinator #comments
It seems like there's a controversy brewing!
The quote you provided suggests that the NYSC (National Youth Service Corps) Coordinator is making a rather bold and controversial statement. It appears that they are accusing employers of treating corps members like slaves.
For those who may not be familiar, the NYSC is a Nigerian government program that requires graduates to serve the nation for a year in exchange for a degree. Corps members are assigned to various organizations, including private companies, government agencies, and non-profit organizations, to serve for a year.
The Coordinator's statement is likely referring to the fact that many corps members are not paid a living wage, are overworked, and are often subjected to poor working conditions. This can be a source of frustration and exploitation for many corps members.
It's important to note that this is not a new issue, and many have spoken out about the challenges faced by corps members. The Coordinator's statement may be an attempt to bring attention to this issue and push for change.
However, it's also important to recognize that not all employers treat corps members poorly. Many organizations provide a positive and supportive environment for their corps members, and some even offer stipends or other forms of compensation.
What do you think about this issue? Have you or someone you know had a positive or negative experience as a corps member?
