A retired Director of Mobilisation at the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Anthony Ani, has insisted that the purported Nigeria’s Minister of Finance, Kemi Adeosun's exemption certificate is not genuine and “wouldn’t have been issued by the NYSC”.


Adeosun has been under fire recently for skipping the mandatory NYSC year and presenting a certificate alleged to be fake to cover her tracks, Daily Post reports.

She is yet to respond to the allegations since they became public last weekend.

Ani, who appeared on Channels Television’s breakfast show, Sunrise Daily, said the certificate had footprints of a fake NYSC certificate.

He insisted that there was no way NYSC would issue Certificate of Exemption to anyone who graduated before 30 years.

“You don’t apply for either NYSC certificate or NYSC certificate of national service or certificate of exemption, you present yourself for mobilisation. The system will determine whether you are to be exempted or you are not to be exempted,” Ani said.

Answering another question, he insisted that “[by] the NYSC procedure, you don’t apply for exemption and expect a certificate. You make yourself available [for mobilisation], when you are mobilised, those who are to be exempted are exempted and those who are to be deployed are deployed.”
