JUST ONE MOUTH

Someone once made a statement regarding the pairing of some parts of our bodies like the hands, legs, ears, nostrils, eyes, lungs, etc; while the most essential parts are not paired. The mouth has been said to be of paramount importance to the existence of all living beings because survival depends on it. Food passes through this same mouth for our nourishment while sounds proceed from this same mouth for the sake of mutual co-existence with the rest of our environment. We express through the harmony of words and express through the letting out of sounds. This one mouth cries and laughs, it lies and tells truths, it blesses and curses, it commends and gossips, it kills and gives life.


There is only one Editorial CDS (not as if other CDS groups are paired); but we are the MOUTH of the NYSC and Corps Members as well. We have the ability to let out the sound that is needed to be heard and that same sound can be held back. This is the voice that can cry and laugh, lie and tell truths, bless and curse, commends and gossip, kill and give life. May God enable us to never abuse this ability but responsibly be the voice that was created for the growth of the NYSC and the well being of Corp Members, as well as thriving for a greater Nigeria.
