JUST IN: COURT AFFIRMS AUTHENTICITY OF GOV MBA’S NYSC CERTIFICATE
The Federal High Court in Abuja’s Justice Nyang Ekwo has affirmed that Governor Peter Mba of Enugu State’s National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) certificate is real and legitimately issued by the organisation.
Judge Ekwo rendered a decision on Monday, stating that the information presented to the court demonstrated that the governor had been called into duty in 2001 but had only finished it in 2003.
The court stated that Mbah applied for and was reinstated for the NYSC in 2003 after requesting and obtaining permission from the organisation midway through his service to attend the Nigeria Law School.
While the NYSC did not contest the evidence that Mbah worked for one of Udeh’s legal companies, Justice Ekwo chastised the corps for failing to prosecute the governor for forgery if they truly thought that they had not given him the aforementioned NYSC certificate.
He came to the conclusion that by refusing Mbah’s NYSC certificate, the NYSC was cunning and had behaved badly.
The Director General and the NYSC were held guilty of misrepresenting material facts by the court, which also granted them N5 million in damages.
