On the 21st of June, 2016, I was contacted by a long time friend from school asking about how I did my Personal Community Development Service otherwise known as Personal CDS as he saw the picture when I was awarded by the Gombe State Governor for carrying out a community service in Gombe State Prison Yard.
As someone that keeps records of all what I do, I still have some of the documents (letters and pictures) which I shared with him to use as a guide to replicate something similar or even do better in his state of national service.
He was so thankful and the gesture inspired me to reach out to a larger audience where i tapped from the pool of traffic coming into nairaland.com to share my experience (free of charge) to help NYSC (youths) across the country through this platform

This gesture has really inspired many and have produced 3 State award winners from my online coaching class. (detailed in the next articles…)
P.S: NYSC stands for National Youth Service Corps. It is compulsory 1 year service for all Nigerian graduates before going into the labour market.
But the personal CDS is voluntary which was the one i did i addition to my service inspired by my zeal in touching lives anywhere i go.
