The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has said it is investigating a viral video showing a corps member undergoing punishment at her place of primary assignment.
The video showed a corps member being punished for an undisclosed offence.
She was also forced to kneel down by a school proprietress.
The video has since sparked outrage.
According to the dialogue heard in the short footage, it appeared that the corps member was being punished for her failure to work.
From the NYSC member’s claims in her native Yoruba dialect, she said she had alluded to menstruation symptoms.
The proprietress argued that if she had explained, she would have understood because she is also a woman.
The video has infuriated Nigerians who alleged a habit among employers of bullying corp members at their place of primary assignment (PPA).
