The controversy over alleged forgery of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) exemption certificate by Minister of Finance, Kemi Adeosun may not disappear anytime soon.
This is as an allegedly photoshopped photo of the minister in NYSC uniform has rent the social media air.

According to the viral report, the minister graduated from the Polytechnic of East London, United Kingdom as a 22-year-old in 1989 but failed to make herself available for national youth service as required by Nigerian law.
She then allegedly “procured” an NYSC exemption certificate in 2009 on account of age.
The forgery was said to have been discovered by some members of the Senate during her screening as a minister, information which some members of the National Assembly allegedly used to blackmail her into releasing billions of naira to the assembly.

Femi Falana’s (SAN) NYSC Cert was withheld for 18years until the Oputa panel. Many folks have issues with sorting out their exemption application but to FORGE a Certificate MUST be the height of mischief. Worst still is the delay in the response to the damaging allegation

Those who went for NYSC are indiscriminately killed by herdsmen & bloodthirsty policemen.

Those who refused to go & forged NYSC Certificate are rewarded with Ministerial appointments.

If I can look 68 in my WAEC passport in 1961, why can’t Kemi look 45 in her NYSC picture?
