Kemi Adeosun Reacts As Court Delivers Judgment On NYSC Certificate Scandal

Kemi Adeosun

Kemi Adeosun has reacted to a court judgment on her NYSC certificate scandal.

Newsone Nigeria had reported earlier that a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital, cleared former Finance Minister, Mrs. Kemi Adosun, of the controversy over her participation or otherwise in the National Youths Service Corps (NYSC) scheme.

This online news platform understands that Justice Taiwo Taiwo in a judgment on Wednesday, July 7, held that Kemi Adeosun was not qualified to have participated in the scheme when she graduated at 22 years because she was then a British citizen.

Reacting to the judgment, in a statement in Abuja, Kemi Adeosun said that she had a traumatic spell on the NYSC certificate forgery allegation against her.

Statement on Kemi Adeosun NYSC certificate scandal 

The statement from Kemi Adeosun reads as thus; “My lawyers have informed me of the judgment by the Federal High Court, Abuja, in the case of Folakemi Adeosun v The Attorney General of the Federation (FHC/ABJ/CS/303/2021) in which the court, presided over by Honourable Justice Taiwo Taiwo, ruled that the Constitution does not require me to present my first-degree certificate or any other certificate, including the NYSC certificate, to be appointed a Minister.

“More importantly, he also ruled that I was not eligible to perform NYSC by virtue of the constitution. This is the position I have always maintained and am happy for this official clarification.

“The ruling vindicates me after a very traumatic spell. It is, however, not only a personal victory; it’s also a victory for many Nigerians in the Diaspora under similar conditions who are desirous to serve their country.

“I wish to thank God, my family, friends, my counsel, Chief Wole Olanipekun (SAN) and numerous well-wishers for their love, care and concern throughout this difficult period, which has lasted three whole years.

“I wish to add in light of the court’s ruling, I will at the appropriate time and without hesitation, take all further steps necessary within the law to protect my reputation.”
