ABUJA–A constitutional lawyer, Mr. Francis Obalim, has approached the Abuja Division of the Federal High Court, asking it to sack the Minister of Finance, Mrs. Kemi Adeosun, from office for not possessing a valid discharge certificate issued by the National Youth Service Corps, NYSC.

The plaintiff, in the suit marked FHC/ABJ/CS/712/2018, applied for an order quashing and setting aside Mrs. Adeosun’s appointment as a Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria by President Muhammadu Buhari, same being an act done in circumvention of a condition precedent and in contravention of mandatory Sections 12, 13 and 14 of the NYSC Act which is an integral part of the 1999 Constitution, as amended.

He maintained that Adeosun who was cited as the 1st defendant in the matter, was not qualified to be employed by the Federal Government of Nigeria either as a Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria or in any other capacity whatsoever, without first presenting a valid discharge certificate issued by the NYSC.

The plaintiff, through his counsel, Mr. Johnmary Jideobi, sought an order of perpetual injunction restraining FG from further according a Ministerial status to the 1st defendant, until she presents a valid certificate of discharge regularly issued by the NYSC.

He wants the court to compel the 1st defendant to refund forthwith to FG, through the Treasury Single Account domiciled at the Central Bank of Nigeria, all the salaries, emoluments, allowances and such other benefits she has enjoyed since her resumption as a Minister in 2015.

Other defendants in the suit are the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mr. Abubakar Malami, SAN, the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki and Clerk of the Senate.



Specifically, the plaintiff prayed the court to determine, “Whether upon an intimate reading and complete understanding Sections 12, 13 and 14 of the National Youth Service Corp Act which is an integral part of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as amended, the 1st Defendant is qualified to be employed by the Federal Government of Nigeria either as a Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria or in any other capacity whatsoever without first presenting a valid discharge certificate issued by the National Youth Service Corp?

As well as, “Whether the appointment of the 1st Defendant by the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria [as a Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria] and the subsequent confirmation of same by the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria are not a nullity and therefore liable to be quashed and set aside being acts done in circumvention of a condition precedent and in violation of Sections 12, 13 and 14 of the National Youth Service Corp Act which is an integral part of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as amended?

Upon determination of the questions, he sought for, “A declaration of this Honourable Court upon an intimate reading and complete understanding of Sections 12, 13 and 14 of the National Youth Service Corp Act which is an integral part of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as amended, the 1st Defendant is NOT qualified to be employed by the Federal Government of Nigeria either as a Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria or in any other capacity whatsoever without first presenting a valid discharge certificate issued by the National Youth Service Corp.

“An order of this Honourable Court quashing and setting aside the confirmation of the 1st Defendant as a Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria carried out by the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria the same being an act done in circumvention of a condition precedent and in contravention of mandatory Sections 12, 13 and 14 of the National Youth Service Corp Act which is an integral part of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as amended.

“An order of perpetual injunction of this Honourable Court restraining the Federal Government of Nigeria from further considering, nominating, appointing, screening and or confirming the 1st Defendant as a Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria or any other government position howsoever named or described until she presents a valid certificate of discharge regularly issued by the National Youth Service Corp in view of Sections 12, 13 and 14 of the National Youth Service Corp Act which is an integral part of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as amended”.

Likewise, “An order of this Honourable Court compelling the 1st Defendant to refund FORTHWITH to the Federal Government of Nigeria [through the Treasury Single Account domiciled at the Central Bank of Nigeria] all the salaries, emoluments, allowances and such other benefits she has enjoyed since her resumption as a Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in 2015 up to the point of the filing of the instant suit”.

Meantime, no date has been fixed for hearing of the suit.

ZI calls LI

After checking


LI calls ZI back with answers

ZI calls State Cordinator 

State Cordinator Calls Director of NYSC

Director Calls President



All of these won't take more than 2hrs to solve.


Guess what these ediorrrts will do.....They will set up a panel to look into it. Koni da fun Nigerian govt Wallahi

She did not serve!...according to the document she allegedly presented... She presented an exemption certificate, which is only meant for people above the mandatory age of 30 as at graduation....also to compound the issue the signature on her certificate is one of a Retired Director...

Director retired in January, she was issued certificate in September but with the director's signature, reason why the reporter believe it was forged.

Just imagine, in as much as nysc cert doesn't make her smarter but why forge. These have no iota of dignity in them.
She did because it's commonplace and many don't see it as a big deal.
I bet you if a forensic analysis of credentials of many ministers,heads of agencies and parastatals including top military brass of government is done,at least 50% would be found to be where they are now with one forged certificate or the other.
The other 20% may be working with though genuinely issued documents,but no academic record of performance to justify it.
Maybe 30% are therefore working with genuine and academically recorded evidence of qualification certificates.
Kemi is just an unfortunate lady who was caught out in a political game,many of her adversaries are also guilty of;including the one whose duty it is to sack her.
She may just be thrown under the trailer to deflect from other inquiries and revelations.

This is serious and embarrasing Walai...Me, i have some questions o: (1) If she is eventualy sacked, (doubtful dou), will she be going to jail? (2) Since she graduated @ 22, does she need to serve after all dis drama is over? (3) if the ans to 2 is Yes,where will she serve,in which local govt,will she attend the three weeks orientation camp and where will be her PPA? (4) will she b ban for holdin public office for life? (5) what was d fate of people like Salisu Buhari (former HOR speaker) who was also found guilty of forging a Canadian University certificate? (6) what punishment awaits the leadership of NASS? (7) what will happen to Premium times if this information is proven false?
