Director-General of the National Youth Service Corps, Brigadier General Shuaibu Ibrahim has warned Prospective Corps Members with fake credentials to avoid its orientation camps across the country.

He promised to arrest and prosecute erring corps members.

Ibrahim said that the NYSC Scheme had put the necessary mechanism in place to curb the enrolment of fake graduates for the Orientation course, and would continue working diligently in that direction.

The DG noted that the Scheme had made tremendous achievements in the fight against unqualified graduates who try to infiltrate the Scheme.

"I want to appeal to our youths to do the right thing and not to cut corners in whatever they do in life, because there is always reward for hard work", he admonished PCMs.

The NYSC boss added that no Corps Member would be deployed to any State where there is a security breach, while equally advising Corps Members not to endanger themselves through risky adventures and unauthorised journeys.

He charged them to be security conscious at all times. He also admonished them to board vehicles from only authorised motor parks and not by the roadside. adding that they should resist the temptation of free rides, especially from strangers.
