The National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, has accused University of Calabar, UNICAL, of fraudulently mobilising 101 graduates for the 2021, 2022 and 2023: national service years and consequently cancelled their certificates.
The University of Calabar was yet to react to the NYSC statement as of the time of filing this report.
These were contained in a statement signed by the management of the NYSC, noting that 99 of the affected persons were graduates of the institution while two were on exemption. It declared that the certificates of the National Service of those involved had been invalidated forthwith.
The NYSC further stated that it stood by its strong commitment to ensuring that unqualified locally and foreign-trained Nigerian youths, especially those who graduated from unaccredited universities were not recognized, even as only qualified persons are issued with NYSC certificates.
The statement read in part, “Members of the public, especially corps employers, Government Ministries, Departments and Agencies, MDAs, corporate and religious organisations, multi-national companies, corps producing institutions and other critical stakeholders of the NYSC are to take note of this advertorial for prompt action.
“In addition, members of the public are also enjoined to confirm from the NYSC National Directorate Headquarters in Abuja, the authenticity of Certificates of National Service, Exemption and Exclusion Letters being presented for any purpose."
