In a press statement issued on Tuesday and signed by the Acting Director of Information and Public Relations, Caroline Embu, the NYSC described the information as misleading and untrue.
The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has dismissed rumors circulating on social media suggesting that Prospective Corps Members (PCMs) who have not received their Call-Up Numbers should visit State Secretariats to collect them.
In a press statement issued on Tuesday and signed by the Acting Director of Information and Public Relations, Caroline Embu, the NYSC described the information as misleading and untrue.
“The attention of the Management of the National Youth Service Corps has been drawn to misleading information being circulated by some mischief-makers, claiming that Prospective Corps Members yet to be issued Call-Up Numbers should proceed to the State Secretariats of the Scheme for this purpose,” the statement read.
The NYSC emphasised that all official communications with PCMs are made exclusively through their individual dashboards and the Scheme’s verified social media platforms.
“For the avoidance of doubt, all Prospective Corps Members who are yet to receive their Call-Up Numbers are enjoined to exercise patience, keep checking their dashboards, and also visit the NYSC Social Media Platforms (Facebook, X, Instagram, Threads) for updates,” the statement clarified.
The Scheme urged the public to disregard any information not issued through its official channels and assured PCMs of timely updates through the approved platforms.
