The National Youth Service Corps says the discharge certificate being paraded by Enugu State Governor-elect, Peter Mbah, was not issued by the NYSC.
The Director General of the NYSC, Brig.- Gen. YD Ahmed, said this in an interview with Arise TV on Friday, May 19.
Ahmed disclosed that he had told Mbah the NYSC certificate he has been parading is fake.
The NYSC DG said: “He came to me and I called my director to confirm the certificate and we discovered that the certificate was fake and I told him.

“I wonder how elites who have gone to school will resort to black market certificates.
“Everyone knows how we issue our certificate in NYSC. We don’t give it in hotel rooms or houses.”
Meanwhile, the Enugu state governor-elect, Peter Mbah has filed a case against the NYSC, demanding N20 billion for injuries he claimed to have been inflicted on his person due to the controversies surrounding his certificate.
The controversy surrounding Mbah’s discharge certificate became known publicly in February 2023 when the NYSC, in response to an inquiry by a Non-Governmental Organisation, released a letter stating that the certificate submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) was not issued by them.
