Abuja, Nov, 6. 2023 – A Federal High Court in Abuja has ruled that the National Youths Service (NYSC) certificate of Enugu State Governor Peter Mbah is authentic and valid.
In his judgment on Monday, Justice Inyang Ekwo said that the certificate presented to the INEC by Mbah was authentic and validly issued by the NYSC.
He held that the NYSC and its defendants in the suit were guilty of misrepresentation of material facts.
Ekwo said that evidence before the court showed that the governor, though mobilised for service in 2001, completed his service in 2003 because midway into his service year, the governor sought permission from the NYSC to attend the Nigeria Law School. (GBN)
