UPDATE: “I am Sorry”- Lagos NYSC Corper Raye Apologizes to Lagosians Over ‘Smelling State’ Comment​

Corper Raye: Lagos-based National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) member, Ushie ‘Raye’ Uguamaye, has issued a public apology following backlash over her recent comments referring to Lagos as a “smelling state.” In a viral TikTok video, Raye expressed frustration over Nigeria’s economic challenges and criticized President Bola Tinubu’s administration. Her description of Lagos sparked mixed reactions, with some residents feeling insulted.​

On Monday, Corper Raye took to Instagram to address the controversy, acknowledging that her words may have offended Lagos residents and expressing regret over her choice of language. She clarified that her intention was not to demean those who call Lagos home but to share her honest observations as a visitor. She stated, “I want to first of all state that I am sorry to the people who were born and raised in Lagos State if you feel offended by what I said. I am sorry.” ​

Corper Raye explained that her controversial remark was part of a broader initiative—a 30-day rant challenge aimed at spotlighting pressing issues in Nigeria. Her goal was to be heard and to inspire conversations about the country’s worsening economic conditions. She noted that her initial plan was to post 20 videos addressing various societal concerns, hoping to spark dialogue by the 20th day. However, the first video gained traction almost immediately, resonating with many Nigerians who shared her frustrations.

In her posts, Raye also lamented the financial struggles young Nigerians face, highlighting how despite working over 45 hours a week, she and many others still struggle to afford basic leisure activities. She questioned how many individuals can afford to hang out with friends, emphasizing that after a week of work, many cannot feel alive during the weekends due to financial constraints. This sentiment reflects the broader economic challenges faced by the youth in Nigeria.​

Raye’s initial comments and subsequent apology have elicited varied reactions. While some have criticized her for flouting NYSC rules, others have shown support, emphasizing the importance of free expression. The NYSC has yet to issue an official statement regarding the incident.​
