Fake Certificate: Don’t Allow Buhari To Cover Up Adeosun, PDP Tells NYSC

Abuja – Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has told the leadership of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) not to allow the presidency to coerce it into covering the certificate forgery case against Kemi Adeosun, the Minister of Finance, with a purported investigation.

The party noted that the reports that the presidency was mounting pressure on NYSC to cover up for the minister and also that Adeosun forged her NYSC Exemption Certificate were already in the public domain.

Kola Ologbondiyan, PDP spokesman, said: “Nigerians are closely monitoring this issue and the public is already aware of pressure on the NYSC leadership to announce a misplacement of relevant files and other excuses to achieve a dead end in the investigation.

The NYSC must therefore know that its reputation is highly at stake, as Nigerians are already agitated over the questionable delay by the Corps in coming out with an answer on a direct issue that requires a simple computer or even manual file check at its headquarters.

“Indeed, a simple process of matching the serial numbering, date and authorising signature on Mrs. Adeosun’s certificate does not require a lengthy investigation or the current shenanigan going on at the NYSC headquarters.”

PDP advised the NYSC to have in mind that in this age of global Information Communication Technology (ICT), there was nothing anybody could do to suppress or distort facts, even in the public service, adding: “Any attempt to cover up will invoke the wrath of Nigerians and irredeemably rubbish the integrity and respect the Corps has earned over the years.

“The NYSC must therefore not allow its reputation to be dragged in the mud by the discredited All Progressives Congress (APC)-led administration that has become notorious for concealment of fraud and sharp practices by its officials.”
