4n0nym0u5n41j4 Yes bcos Nigerians like travelling if you re travelling slot n your citizens re all over the world they will want you to bring in money to there country now we re travelling alot

It's foolishness & stupidity that made certain toerags who suddenly found themselves in undeserved leadership positions to think a war on terror could be won by locking up the poor innocent civilians in the dark, making them more vulnerable! How dumb can one be & still breathe?!!

How ? Wahala

The govt should pay these ransoms

That's Nigeria for you. Yet Fighter jets didn't bombard them because they are above the law. Disintegration/Referendum is the only solution.

Sometimes these youths always feel those that camped there before them don't have two heads, meaning they can also camp and serve there. Now their lives depends on 2million naira each.. a whole graduate?!!

And u believed it was actually shutdown? 🤣🤣🤣

No corner shd go to the north. Una no like una lives. Nysc will adjust wen no corner agrees to go

That's hypocrisy of the zoo terrorist kidnapped iswap bandit bokoharam Fulani terrorist government.

Why would officialnyscng continue to post young graduates to such locations. It is nothing but height of irresponsibility. About time people refuse such posting and insist on being reposted. May she regain her freedom soonest.

I beg family pple's biz make una no bruise ds fine face o

We need to push for buhari's impeachment. Contact your senators and house of reps for your constituency, they need to call for the impeachment on the floor.

GodwinElendu2 They will on it do their business. Are they not the same people that shut it down? After business, they will put it off. Thank you. Yeye dey smell

This is really damn and unfortunate 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

E shock you? 😀😀😀 Those kidnappers re foot soldiers to top politicians in the north. What baffles me is how they want to destroy their world up north just for money.

So this girl was actually kidnapped.

For sure, the Kidnapping company has broken new grounds of communication. So FG shock abi......?

Telecom shut down is to shut down the voices of those who will cry for help or report what’s actually happening... just like the way they shut down Twitter to silence critics and those who report bad things happening in Nigeria..

No big deal here. A renowned terrorist sympathiser is the Nigerian 🇳🇬 communications minister.

Whoever vote for APC next election will not live to enjoy any good from this land

Can a thief catch a thief?Can the same people sponsoring TERRORISM stop it? Use your brain

OkoroOkoroafor Why did you go to serve in a terrorist enclave?

Heggshells Please help me retweet, my customer might just be on your time-line

Whoever adviced the government to shutdown telecommunications in other to stop Terrorist from kidnapping for ransom is so dumb and myopic. In this 21st century, clueless government or security agencies still bought such an idea. That goes to show how backward Nigeria is. Clueless

They use juju

Use the right word! They are terrorists are you people unfortunate.

I advise all incoming,serving and out going corpers to stand in solidarity with her.

Telecoms shutting is not a good decision to stop kidnapping. They could even kill the people kidnapped if they could not reach out to their family

USA should know that Malami and Buhari fulani do not want to kill terrorists, they are using terrorists to incite unrest in Nigeria to islamize everyone. Islamization agenda is their plan, this is why Nigeria army are killing in Biafra while terrorists are killing in the north.

What is she looking for there in the first place? U can not use prayers to building a bridge or lift up ur countries economy so for those of u being deceived by ur business pastors who kept telling u are covered by this or that, u should Re-think and stop being ignorant

General_Somto Shutdown for nigerianist not for fulanis okay

Despite telecom shutdown, they still managed to contact Corper’s family for ransom and you still call them “bandits”? We can do politics with diction all we like but these guys are TERRORISTS.

It doesn't affect Thuraya, shutting down telecoms is just an eye service moves...

Buhari and Zamfara Governor never heard of satellite phones? Mtsheew

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Lol.

😂😂😂

Hungry Bandits

Nysc should be cancelled abeg

The sponsors operate from Abuja, so, communication is not a problem for them.

That means she was taken to another state

Omo. officialnyscng shebi una post me to kastina. Na your kids will go there.

If you like shutdown zamfara, e no change anything , do the right thing

I said this before shutting down network is not the solution

telecom shutdown didnt affect kidnapping enterprise

Wahala 🙈

You did read the training manual in NYSC camp, on how to escape from kidnapper

The terrorist are using network given to them by Mr double in aso Rock.its a planned game

That’s terrible. We’ve got useless leaders in naija. Omg corperkidnapped

How do they do that. 😂

Telecoms shutdown = Border Closure = currency control = Protests ban = Lame government policies that will never work to improve the well-being of the people of Nigeria. Archaic policies with disastrous results

Fulani led government have no vision. Lack ideas to tackle problems . Their trademark; Low esteem , pugnacious will always show every now and then . Fulanis need mental resuscitation . We are not surprise.

The mobile network provider should be able to help , since they gave out details of the EndSARS protesters the other day.

These guys are big time terrorists aided by the military, so they have they need to communicate. CancelNYSCintheNORTH
