A video that recently gained popularity on social media has ignited strong reactions from numerous Nigerians. The video depicts a distressing scene in which a National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) member serving as a teacher was compelled to kneel before a school proprietress.
The incident unfolded with the corp member, who serves as a teacher in the school, kneeling while facing the school's proprietress and another unidentified woman, whose face remained hidden throughout the video.
The conversation captured in the brief clip suggests that the corp member was facing this humiliating punishment due to her alleged failure to carry out her work responsibilities, which she attributed to her menstrual cramps.

In a surprising turn of events, the proprietress acknowledged her own status as a woman and expressed empathy, suggesting that if the corp member had communicated her situation, it would have been understood.
The video has elicited a flurry of reactions from social media users, with some expressing skepticism about its authenticity, speculating that it might be a scripted skit. However, the underlying issue of young corps members facing unfavorable treatment from their employers during their Primary Place of Assignment (PPA) remains a point of concern for many Nigerians.
This incident has drawn attention to an ongoing trend where some employers allegedly subject NYSC members to bullying, prompting calls for improved protection of these young individuals during their service year.
