God in his infinite wisdom can turn black into white or white into green, or give life to the dead or make the living to be a dead body.
This is what happened to a young NYSC member in Maiduguri, Zainab Idris who went to NYSC orientation camp with only her transport, handset and unfinished cap which she was knitting only to go home with the sum of 430,000.
She dressed very well to the camp because it was announced the previous day that governor Babagana Zulum will be visiting the camp to see them, address them and inspect their facilities.
As expected, the governor with his convoy went to the NYSC orientation camp, the members were fully prepared, well dressed and ready to receive the governor, with a military instructor leading the parade mounted by the NYSC members.
Governor Babagana Zulum on arrival, inspected the parade and later had a chat with some of the NYSC members, he later called Zainab Idris and ask her what she is doing with unfinished cap, she told the governor that she is doing that to generate money for her upkeep and that she use to knit different brand of caps.
The governor then told her that “let me patronize you, if you finish the cap before your orientation period, I will sent for it and if you did not finish I will arrange how you will deliver it to me, I will therefore wish to buy the cap at 400,000.
Later the governor donated 36 million to the NYSC members with each of them getting 30,000 each, including Zainab Idris.
Later she told the press in the governors convoy that she was speechless and pray that Babagana Zulum should be a president in Nigeria in future. She quickly went to the bank to lodge the money to avoid being robbed.
