A serving corps member in Lagos State has cried out that she is allegedly receiving threatening messages for criticizing the administration of President Bola Tinubu.

In a viral video, the corps member, simply identified by her TikTok name as @talktoraye, slammed Tinubu’s government over rising inflation and economic hardship.

She expressed frustration over the deteriorating economic conditions in Nigeria.

The corps member allegedly openly criticized President Bola Tinubu, calling him a terrible leader and questioning what steps the government was taking to ease the suffering of citizens.

She further explained how the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) scheme has been less beneficial to her, as she has had to spend more than the allowance she receives.

She said: “If a lot of Nigerians come out and start speaking about what we are going through, maybe changes will be made in the government. I just want to say to our president, I don’t know if there is any other president that is as terrible as you, but you are such a terrible president.

“So, I am coming from a supermarket where I went to get foodstuff, and everything has gone up again. It’s just like every single week, prices keep increasing. I want to know, what is the government doing about this increase? Is there going to be a particular time when prices will stop going up? Why am I going to get a crate of eggs and I’m told it costs N6,500? It doesn’t make any sense that eggs would cost that much. I literally remember when eggs cost N800. I am so overwhelmed because this is the first time I’ve stayed out of my family house.

“After I left the supermarket, I got home, and the security and NEPA bills have skyrocketed, doubling in price. It is insane. I can’t keep up with these bills. Every single penny I make, I am using it to pay bills. The crazy thing is, you want to go out with your friend, and Uber is N25,000. Why are things so expensive?” she queried.

After her video gained traction, the corps member claimed she began receiving threatening messages, allegedly from NYSC officials.

She reportedly posted another video in which she was receiving calls from an NYSC official.

It was gathered that in the video, the official scolded her for the video, asking her to take it down.

“Are you normal? Keep quiet and bring down the video you posted,” the NYSC official allegedly told her over the phone.

Meanwhile, the NYSC is yet to respond to the allegations.
