Youth corps members won’t be deployed to fight in Niger – NYSC official
The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has said there is no plan to deploy youth corps members to Niger to fight a war to restore democracy.
The NYSC Director, Press and Public Relations, Eddy Megwa, said this in a statement weekend in Abuja in response to a video he said was circulating on social media, alleging that members would be deployed to Niger.
He stated that, “management wishes to state that there is no iota of truth in the story fabricated by the purveyor, a skit and content creator.
“The public, especially youth corps members, prospective members and their parents should disregard the story, which borders on criminality in its entirety.
“Content and skit makers are strongly advised to desist from spreading false information capable of subverting the peace of the nation.”
Mr Megwa added that law enforcement agencies would stop at nothing to bring the purveyors of the story to justice.
