Act one, scene one

The scene is set in the NYSC orientation camp, Darka. The wind of a summer Abuja morning bellows with gentility. Corpers from different part of the country are walking past. It's time for the distribution of posting letters.

OFFICIAL 1 : ( Sighs) Team Asaba!

ABISOLA: (Sneers) Let's go in, pals

TEAM ASABA: Here we are (They marched in, nicely dressed)

OFFICER 2: Are you guys aware that you'll be receiving your letters today?

TEAM ASABA: ( In Unison) Yes Sir

OFFICIAL 1: ( Scours his table for their slips and hands them over)....... Save this! You all are to report to the organisations with immediate effect?

BOLATITO: Alright Sir.

OFFICIAL 2: Go to the reception lodge to sign on the face of the envelopes, please. Good luck as you go!

JOY: Sincere appreciations, ma. We promise not to disappoint you

ABDULLAH: Da yardar Allah na musamman!...... We're indeed grateful

[ The corpers walked away, giving room for the next team]
