The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has debunked rumors circulating on social media that prospective corps members can obtain their call-up numbers at their state Secretariat.
In a statement released by Caroline Embu the Ag Information and Public Relations, on Thursday, prospective corps members were advised to disregard the rumor, as it is false and did not emanate from the Scheme.
“The attention of Management of National Youth Service Corps has been drawn to misleading information being circulated by some mischief makers that Prospective Corps Members yet to be issued Call-Up-Numbers should proceed to the State Secretariats of the Scheme for this purpose. The general public is strongly advised to ignore such messages as they did not emanate from the Scheme and is untrue”.
According to the statement, all communication between the NYSC and prospective corps members is done through their individual dashboards and the NYSC’s officially approved social media platforms.
