• People who have seen the corps member's story on Twitter are reacting to it in funny ways, with some saying he would be redeployed

A member of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) posted to Oyo state mistakenly travelled to Uyo.

The NYSC corps member did not realise his mistake until he got to Uyo, where he hoped to commence the service year.
