Our surroundings...pictures!!

The best part of Osun state is the fireflies. I have a feeling I have mentioned this in a previous post but I love, love, love those things. Now, I have taken the time to take pictures of many components of the NYSC permanent camp ground in Ede, Osun.


WARNING!!!
The rest of this post may contain images that can cause nightmares, nausea and possibly diarrhea. VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED!!!


CAPTION
1st picture is of our bathroom (where we're SUPPOSED to bathe)

2nd picture is the camp clinic.

3rd is of the shotput area, which is right behind our hostel so we get to enjoy the smell when the sun is out baking all the shotputs. (this is funny now because I have less than 12hrs to go in camp)


4th &11th pictures are of the pavilion and field

5th picture is of our pitt latrine. As soon as the woman washes them, they end up like that. FYI, the boys hostel have actual toilets(water closets - the kinds that everyone should have in their house)

6th picture is of a man I consider a celeb and a very important man. He's the one that blows the instrument he's holding to wake up Nigeria, say goodnight to Nigeria and alert the Corpers when it's parade time. (I forgot to find out what the instrument is called. If you know it, please leave a comment below).

7th picture is of my hostel

8th & 10th pictures are of mammi market

9th picture is where we charge our phones. Mr. White is the name of my own person out of them all.

12th picture is our block (garbage can and where girls have turned to a drying area. Quite creative)

13th picture is of the kitchen area that I never went to

Hope you enjoyed this.

    1. Chale! Forget visiting after someone else's bizness. What about someone else taking care of their bizness right when you are bathing. And yea, that was my reaction when I heard that boys had WCa and we didn't. But I later found out that some girls hotels did have also. I was just unlucky to get the hostel that didn't have. But I wldnt't have used it anyways. You could just see the diseases flying around the camp.
