NYSC denies withholding certificate of corps member who criticised Tinubu, says delay not political

The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has debunked viral claims that Corps Member Ushie Rita Uguamaye, popularly known as “Raye”, was denied her Certificate of National Service because she criticised President Bola Tinubu’s administration.

 

In a statement released on Sunday, the NYSC described the allegation as false and baseless, insisting that the delay in issuing her certificate is purely procedural.

 

Raye, whose service code is LA/24B/8325, went viral earlier this year after a TikTok video in which she described Lagos as “smelling” and criticised the Tinubu government. The clip sparked heavy backlash, forcing her to apologise.

 

Her case attracted public sympathy from political figures like former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar and activist Omoyele Sowore, who alleged that the delay in her certification was politically motivated.

 

The NYSC, however, maintains that politics had nothing to do with it.
