NYSC VOWS TO SANCTION INSTITUTIONS OVER MOBILIZATION FRAUD

The Management of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has vowed to punish any corps producing institution involved in fraudulent
mobilization process.
The Director-General, Major General Sulaiman Zakari Kazaure said this in his keynote address during the business session of 2019 Batch ‘A’ Pre-Mobilization Workshop held in Keffi, Nasarawa State.
Kazaure said despite resolutions made in the past, some schools still upload names of unqualified and over-aged graduates for mobilization into the National Service.
The DG added that others, in a bid to play circumvent the mobilization process, upload accredited courses for their graduates as against their actual courses of study which has not been accredited by the NBTE/NUC.
He said henceforth, any prospective Corps Member with disparity between the course on the call-up letter and statement of result will not be registered in camp.
