The National Service Secretariat has released the postings for the 2024/2025 service year.
However, a young lady is not pleased with where she was posted and has been crying since she checked online.
In a TikTok video, the lady’s sibling said her sister was posted to Metro Mass Transit (MMT) even though she opted for special posting.
The lady was unhappy with her posting, and according to her sister, she had been crying since she checked online.
“NSS just released the postings, and my sister has been posted to Metro Mass Transport, and she has been crying. She’s wailing, and it’s so sad. I think she even opted for a special posting, but when the thing was released, they posted her to Metro Mass.”
Her sister shared the story to ask what exactly service personnel do at the MMT, or if anyone could help them change the posting so her sister could stop crying.
In the comments section, one person who had interned at the MMT before explained that there are several departments at the place. She clarified that working at the MMT did not only mean one would drive a bus or be a conductor.

Gina said:
“I did my internship there last year, and the company has a lot of departments; it’s not all about transport fares. They have the procurement department, estate, engineering department, accounts, stores and a lot more. Tell her to actually prepare herself, cos there’s a lot of work there, I’m talking from experience.”

“I studied marine engineering and they’ve posted me to the national communications authority ☹.”
Millicent Kumah said:
“If they post you to a place out of your course of study, is it not an opportunity to learn something new? Because after service, it’s not everyone that gets to do what they actually learnt in sc because life happens. Who knows what and where you got during service is what is going to carry you through. Just embrace it.”
Pacey responded:
“But you also want to make sure you get a place that is aligned with a career path you’re considering. So that even if you don’t get retained, it’s easy to get a job afterwards because of your experience & the job you’re seeking. There needs to be a connection!”
