The NYSC’s response comes in response to a social media video that claimed corps members would be sent by the federal government to fight in a war for the country’s restoration of democracy.

“Content and skit makers are strongly advised to desist from spreading false information capable of subverting the peace of the nation.
“Law enforcement agencies will stop at nothing to bring the purveyors of the story to justice.”
