A female NYSC corps member has set social media abuzz after breaking down in tears when a medical test confirmed she was actually pregnant — despite initially claiming it was a lie.
The bizarre incident was shared by a medical doctor on X (formerly Twitter), @PreciousOrla, and has since gone viral.
She Faked a Pregnancy to Leave Camp
According to the doctor’s account, the corps member claimed she was pregnant in a bid to be excused from strenuous camp activities. However, when she was told that a pregnancy test would be conducted for confirmation, she quickly backtracked.
She reportedly confessed that she had lied and insisted she was not pregnant after all.

Despite her denial, the nurse insisted on running the test anyway. What followed stunned everyone present.
The result came back positive.
The corps member, who moments earlier had claimed it was all a lie, reportedly broke down in tears after realizing she was truly pregnant — a discovery she herself did not expect.
The doctor wrote:
“Someone here wanted to use pregnancy to lie and leave camp. Immediately she realised she will be tested for confirmation she now said she’s not pregnant again and that she was lying. The nurse insisted on doing the test anyway, and she’s indeed pregnant. She’s been crying.”
Social Media Reacts: ‘This Is Wild’
The story has triggered massive reactions online, with many users describing the incident as shocking, ironic, and almost unbelievable.
While some called it a life lesson, others joked about “speaking things into existence,” and a few expressed sympathy for the young woman now forced to confront an unexpected reality.
A Camp Lie That Became Real Life
What began as a desperate attempt to dodge NYSC camp stress turned into a life-altering moment — and a viral story Nigerians won’t stop talking about.
Sometimes, it seems, lies don’t just catch up with you — they confirm themselves.
