Parents want me to Do NYSC

I’ve unfortunately recently lost my job and my parents want me to do NYSC so bad. I don’t live in Nigeria and haven’t since I was like 6 , I have no intentions of working in Nigeria at the moment. They want to use it to “toughen me up” but like …… what’s the actual point. I guess it could be an interesting experience. My mum talks about how much fun she had doing hers but then will also talk about how unsafe it is now ?? So what’s the point ????

Edit: Hi , thank you all so much for the advice. To answer some questions; I'm 26 going on 27 this year. I have degrees in public health and I was working in an admin role in a hospital. I know right now i have nothing to lose by doing it, but it's not appealing to me or a part of what i wanted to do with my life or career. I dont have friends in Nigeria, but my parents have a lot of friends and connections.
