According to Sahara Reporters, a deposition at the Federal High Court, Abuja, taken from the assistant director in the corps certification department, Mrs Rhoda Dawa, revealed that the discharge certificate that Governor Mbah claimed was issued to him did not emanate from the NYSC.
Documents submitted to the court by the NYSC include the alleged forged certificate Mbah submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and a photocopy of the original copy of the certificate that was to be issued to Mbah.
NYSC DG speaks on authenticity of Peter Mbah's certificate
The Director General of the National Youth Service Corps, Brig Gen YD Ahmed, said the discharge certificate being paraded by Enugu state governor-elect Peter Mbah, was not issued by the body.
Brig Gen Ahmed made this disclosure on Friday, May 19, while appearing on Arise TV’s breakfast programme.
He said the argument on whether Mbah has a valid NYSC certificate did not arise because he had told the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)'s candidate in the 2023 governorship elections that what he presented as a certificate was fake.
