The management of National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has appealed to Nigerians to disregard a video circulating on the social media alleging that corps members would be deployed to Niger Republic by the Federal Government to restore democracy in the country.

NYSC Director, Press and Public Relations, Eddy Megwa, in a statement, yesterday, in Abuja, said that there was no iota of truth in the story, adding that it was fabricated by the purveyor, a skit and content creator, to drive traffic to his platform.

“The general public, especially corps members, prospective corps members and their parents, should disregard the story, which borders on criminality in its entirety.

“Content and skit makers are strongly advised to desist from spreading false information capable of subverting the peace of the nation,” he said.

He added that law enforcement agencies would stop at nothing to bring the purveyor of the story to justice.
