My NYSC Online Registration Experience

Hello buddies!!

So, I’ve been looking forward to NYSC for quite a while, had some sort of extraordinary ginger. I even started a group on whatsapp and added friends that I knew will be serving in March Batch A 2016. Registration started on the 8th of February and something new was added…Choosing of 4 preffered States (of your supposedly choice). One of my friends went to registered quite early and unfortunately the NYSC portal is yet to be open for registration, she informed the group members and we all felt relaxed, a minutes later one of the group member informed us that its opened, I was so happy that I forgot to brush my teeth ( my body they shake).

On getting to cafe I met fellow awaiting otondons I had to pick number, I started registering for the first stage which was actually very easy for me I received the verification mail and Nysc server started acting funny (404 error). Some minutes later the server continue going and I continued with my registration, on getting to the last part I couldn't choose the 4 states I wanted, I had to opted for 2 states (Kaduna and Abuja) I clicked on submit and that was it..

On getting to my dashboard I saw a message which reads "You have not yet been mobilised because valid details were not sent from your institution. However, your institution has been notified. If rectify you are likely to be on stream 2"  I was like shooo after all this stress I will still go to school to lodge complain, chai, I left the cafe and went to the bank to pay.  On getting back from the bank to the cafe I checked my mail and my transaction pin was inbox to me by "sender" NYSC, I input the pin and I printed my popularly acclaimed "Green Card",  i thank God my Call-Up number was on it, I was happy a little bit ( but my heart still dey beat fast).

I went to school the next day, on getting to the DSA's office i showed them the message and my Green card, the man attending to me response was like "wetin dey do U, U see call up number u know happy abegi commot" As far as u have your Call-Up number the problem is from NYSC end and not from school. I believed the man and woman and went to the nearest cafe to check and found no error I.e,(no message). A girl that sitting beside me just showed me her Call-Up letter, I was like ahn ahn where u see am, she just gave me the link, as I input the link I saw my call up letter. I was so so happy,  unknowingly that NYSC will still claim that there site has been hacked bla bla bla, giving excuses just to cover their gafee.

All in all it was a stressed and great experience, but why online if students would still go through rigorous, ramrod, strict, flinty process just to register.. Na wa for NYSC ooooo...
What was your experience like? Was it stressful or lax?
