NYSC DG commends UNICAL VC for reporting unqualified graduates for demobilization

The Director-General, National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) Brig.-Gen. Yusha’u Ahmed, has commended the Vice Chancellor of UNICAL, Prof. Florence Obi, for her uprightness in reporting unqualified graduates to the scheme for demobilization.

The Director-General, gave the commendation in a statement issued on Saturday in Abuja by the Director of Information and Public Relations, Mr Eddy Megwa.

According to Ahmed, this is in line with the scheme’s continuous efforts to prevent unqualified graduates from getting the NYSC Certificate of National Service.

He said that the demobilised candidates would be prosecuted accordingly.

Ahmed said that another 19 candidates who initially registered online for mobilisation have been prevented from service, while four certificates of national service for other culprits were not produced by the scheme.

“This is in addition to the earlier 101 certificates that were recently voided by the scheme, making a total of 178”, he said.

The D-G commended the Vice-Chancellor of the University, Prof. Florence Obi, for her forthrightness in hinting NYSC on the mobilisation of unqualified graduates from the institution.

“The Vice-Chancellor of the University of Calabar came here to report that she observed some names appeared on the institution’s list and they ought not to have been there.

“She checked the list the school gave us and I told her that their certificates would be invalidated. I give kudos to the Vice-Chancellor,” he said.
