Culture Minister, Hannatu Musawa, disowns statement on NYSC status
The minister of culture, arts, and the creative economy, Hannatu Musawa, has denounced a statement that was allegedly made in response to the controversy surrounding her National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) position.
A statement supposedly made by Ms Musawa, which was published in the media on Sunday, claimed that doing the national service and holding a ministerial position at the same time did not violate any laws.
However, Ms Musawa stated that the published statement did not come from her and that she was consequently dissociating herself from the statement’s contents in a statement by the Deputy Director of Press at the Federal Ministry of Information and National Orientation, Suleiman Haruna.
