Recall that the undercover reporter breached NYSC's system and got mobilised for the scheme after serving in 2019.
The National Youth Service Corps, NYSC has reacted after an undercover reporter, Umar Audu exposed loopholes in the system.
Recall that the undercover reporter breached NYSC's system and got mobilised for the scheme after serving in 2019.
NYSC spokesman, Eddy Megwa explained that Audu used different phone numbers to beat the system.
Megwa’s explanation is coming after Umar detailed how he bagged a four-year degree within two months and later got mobilised for the NYSC scheme.
However, Megwa while appearing on Channels Tv, Sunrise Daily said NYSC was working to forestall such incident in the future.
According to Megwa: “It is not that we don’t have checks and balances in place to detect possible breaches of the system.
“When the undercover reporter first put in his data, the system rejected him because he had served in the scheme before.
“He later changed his email address and his phone number which made the system to accept him. And he was initially posted to Osun State.
“He did that because he was out for a particular purpose. We are looking at the situation and ensure that it does not happen again.
“We don’t have a database of graduates to serve in the scheme.
“We only rely on the lists sent to us by the senates of the various universities stating the number of graduates to expect from them”.
