Brigadier General Yushau Ahmed, Director General of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), revealed that among those fraudulently mobilized by the University of Calabar, Cross River State, for the scheme is a bread seller who never attended the institution.
This announcement follows the recent invalidation of 101 certificates, bringing the total number of voided certificates to 178.

Ahmed commended Professor Florence Obi, Vice-Chancellor of the University of Calabar, for her transparency in previously alerting the scheme about the mobilization of unqualified graduates from her institution.
He emphasized that the scheme is committed to thoroughly cleansing its mobilization process.
“The Vice-Chancellor of the University of Calabar came here to report that she observed some names appeared on the institution’s list and they ought not to have been there.
“She checked the list the school gave us and I told her that their certificates would be invalidated.
“Previously, a bread seller was mobilized on the graduation list from the same institution. There are bad eggs in many places that generate matriculation numbers and courses for their candidates,” Ahmed said.
