Makinde's daughter bullied in NYSC camp

He thanked the Camp officials for accommodating his daughter, and for making her feel welcome there.

“When I was talking to the representative of the Lagos state governor, I said I couldn’t believe my daughter would stay here for three weeks, because she wanted to stay for one night but it turned to three weeks.

“She told me that she enjoyed herself, though she said some people bullied her. And I told her ‘welcome to the real world where there is no protection and you have to do whatever it is that they are doing out there.”

Makinde admonished the youth to explore the opportunity provided by the compulsory national service to the country.
