NYSC Certificate Forgery: PDP Kwara candidate Atunwa implicates self in submission to INEC

The Peoples Democratic Party governorship candidate in Kwara State, Razak Atunwa, has formally admitted that he has two university degrees, but failed to present himself for national service in a blatant violation of the Nigerian Constitution.
PREMIUM TIMES first reported last month that Mr Atunwa did not participate in the national youth scheme as required by law, but instead procured a forged certificate of the National Youth Service Corps.

Mr Atunwa, a serving federal lawmaker and chairman of the House of Representatives Committee on Justice, tendered the document to the PDP in his nomination filings for the party in late September, and even went further to swear an affidavit notarized at the Kwara State High Court in Ilorin, the state capital.

Mr Atunwa denied wrongdoing at the time, telling PREMIUM TIMES he had complied with the law in filing his election paperwork with his party.

But when the politician submitted his nomination form to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), he confirmed he had two university degrees as reported by PREMIUM TIMES, but conspicuously removed the claim he made about taking part in the youth service.

Although our report has prompted Mr Atunwa to dubiously remove his forged NYSC certificate from the credentials he submitted to INEC, the lawmaker has implicated himself by confirming to INEC that he obtained both undergraduate and master’s degrees from two universities.

The NYSC law requires every Nigerian who attended university or polytechnic to participate in the national youth scheme for one year after graduation, provided the person finished before age 30.

..

Atunwa should be arrested, charged, prosecuted and jailed accordingly after the like of Kemi Adeosun, Adebayo Shittu have had their day too.Enough of this certificate racketeering among Nigerian public office holders.

Like Buhari, like Atunwa.

They are lazy leaders as well.

The NYSC I attended with Joy.
Flexing camp things as I wish.

And this gbef decided to skip it.

Yet he's representing some people.

Saraki should replace this guy fast with Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi.

Only In The zoo

CERTIFICATELESS and LIFELESS MEN

I love this new dimension of journalism.

Thumbs up to Premium Times.

Has he not been substituted with a qualified candidate already, what is Saraki waiting for or it doesn't matter because he is in PDP?

there so many criminals trading in this country... God will expose you all. you can see why Nigeria is in dark when people who are qualified to occupy a position are been denied. until useful product start piloting on be in helm of affairs ... backwardness will continue to grow

So .

Let him join the next batch. He must serve.

olosho u havnt sent me money for happy hour. Kilo shele?

No wonder they find it extremely difficult to served the people interest in the first place. What a shame!

Saraki don play penalty go throwing, Atunwa ko Arunwa ni, Pdp Ole Saraki Ole

Foolish dunce, just like the rest of pdp supporters.

Something has to be done about a one year scheme (NYSC) being important than a degree one laboured four, or more years, to obtain.

And there's no enriching experience about NYSC.

Something has to be done really.

Seriously? Are most of our politicians credential challenged?

Numerous people have NYSC with graduate degrees and its only the ones that don't have that rule us. Our mumu don expire. Haba!

This one sounds as if he was crying and shaking when typing. Just negodu engrish.

Certificate forgery is flowing from the head to the bottom.

hmm Nigeria Politics!!!!
