Reactions as corps member receives N330,000 allowance

Toyonmichelle said:

"People saying she should have taken possession of the money and not said anything have obviously not served because, she has to tender her bank statement to get her certificate, so she'd have to refund it at the end of the day. She can't get away with it."

Pepe_nwa stated:

"Even at your age you lack sense and obviously don't want to make it in life. Other people looking for this type of opportunity and you are complaining. Go to your local government and return the money then keep suffering since that's what you like."
