The Director, Press and Public Relations, National Youth Service Corps, Eddy Megwa, has explained that an investigative reporter who registered twice for the scheme was able to do so by using alternate details.
PUNCN Online reports that an investigative reporter, Umar Audu, had revealed how he obtained a degree from a Cotonou-based university within six weeks, before proceeding on the mandatory one-year service with the NYSC.
In his report, Audu had detailed how the portal had flagged his initial attempt to register with his previous details, and how the registration went through after he used a different email and phone number.
“NYSC seemingly lacked a digital tool to flag attempts to participate in the scheme twice or more,” he said.
