Road to Umunya Camp
It was the year 2012, and I found myself embarking on a life-changing journey to Umunya NYSC orientation camp. The camp was located in Anambra State. It is about a 10-hour journey to my hometown. I was really excited for the opportunity to serve my fatherland. And I was also ecstatic about the adventure that lay ahead. Meanwhile, the prospect of reaching Umunya Camp was nothing short of a challenging odyssey. There is no straight to camp ride! 😰
The Journey Ahead
Like many corps members, I had heard stories of the trek to camp. I was also familiar with the narrative of numerous transfers from one bus to another during transit. My mind reeled from uncertainty to the hours of travel just to get there. It was an adventure of its own—not quite the adventure I had in mind. And there, in the midst of my worries, I reached out to one of my “egbon adugbos”, who had served in the eastern part of Nigeria, for some guidance.
Not only that. I placed calls to my fellow graduates at my school to get the first-hand travel gist of any available straight-to-camp rides. Ideas flew like confetti at a carnival, each one as uncertain as the last. My experience, is slightly different from others. I have to embark on a 50-minute journey to Ibadan just to catch a bus to Onitsha and then, another to Umunya, where the NYSC Orientation Camp is situated. There was no luxury of online bookings to road travel as revolutionized by T40 Technologies through Intercity.
Fast forward to the present time, and I find myself reminiscing about those days, especially when I think about today’s prospective corps members – Otondos, as we were called them in camp– things are lot better now. Unlike my time, when we faced the challenges and uncertainties of reaching camp through crude means and reliance on elderly ones who had experience the same ordeal.
