Cute NYSC Photo of Nigerian Lady and Her Mum Goes Viral Online, Their Strong Resemblance Surprises People

A Nigerian lady, Valerie Usigbe, got the internet buzzing after she shared a photo of herself and her mum in National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) uniforms.

Established in 1973, NYSC is a one-year mandatory service for Nigerian graduates, and Valerie’s mum did hers 32 years ago.

In the collaged photo Valerie shared on Twitter, she struck the same pose her mother did many years ago. Her mum’s photo looked low-quality, but the duo looked lovely in the outfit.

Valerie’s tweet blew up with over 11k likes as many people gushed over their fine looks.

Netizens agreed they looked so much alike.
