EKO HOT BLOG understands that the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has disclosed that a former Minister of Aviation now Senator representing Anambra North, Stella Oduah does not have an NYSC certificate.
In a reply to the request by the Concerned Anambra North Peoples Democratic Party Stakeholders, seeking to validate the claim by the Senator that she lost her NYSC certificate, the Director-General of the service said that even though Oduah was mobilised for national service in 1982/83 service year and was deployed to Lagos State, she absconded after the orientation and never completed the service.”
“The consequence of this is that she is not qualified for the issuance of the certificate of national service,” the DG made this clarification in a letter dated May 24, 2022, with reference number NYSC/DHQ/PPRU/783/ VILIII as obtained by Daily Trust. The letter was signed on the DG’s behalf by Eddy Megwa.
Oduah reportedly deposed to an affidavit and obtained a police extract in 2014, where she stated that sometime in 2010 while in transit from Akili in Ogboru LGA, Anambra State to Abuja she discovered that some of her personal belongings were missing.
The affidavit, a copy of which was obtained by our correspondent reads in part, “That sometime in 2010 while in transit from Akili Ozizor in Ogbaru LGA t Abuja I discovered that my personal belongings were missing.
That the missing documents are the originals of my West African School Certificate of 1978 from Zixton Secondary School Ozubulu, First School Leaving Certificate from St. John Odoakpu Onitsha, Bachelor of Science in Business Administration Certificate 1982 from St Paul’s College Lawrenceville Virginia USA, National Youth Service Corps Certificate 1983, National Identity Card, United States of America Social Security Card with the number on it.
“That all efforts are to trace the missing documents proved abortive.”
The group, the Concerned Anambra North Peoples Democratic Party Stakeholders had written the NYSC’s Director-General to issue them with a certified true copy of the certificate of national service with the Youth Service Corps issued to Stella Oduah in 1982/83.
