Day 1: Stress and Heat

Away from home,
To serve my country
To a state called Ogun
A town called Sagamu
A journey of 8 hours
And stress galore
The camp is okay so far, it's a beauty
But the queue with the heat!
Lord of mercy!
It is like being embalmed

Another stress start again from registration
With queuing and pushing
When I got there the light and ventilation stopped
I was soaked in my own sweat
And my head was ringing
I had to like wait on the line for another 3 hours
With different attitude from the staff
Here, you can't run back to your mama's home
You just have to endure.

So I will stopped here for today
We go again tomorrow to experience new things
I heard we would have to wake up by 4am tomorrow!
Let me go rest first
