Nasarawa police arrest fake corp member in NYSC camp

Ogeh Bethel Chibuife, a fictitious member of the National Youth Service Corps, was apprehended at the Magaji Dan Yumusa Orientation Camp in Keffi, according to confirmation from the Nasarawa State Police Command.

The arrest came about as a result of a complaint that a NYSC staff member had filed at the Keffi Divisional Headquarters, according to a statement released on Thursday by the state's Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Ramhan Nansel.

The statement claims that the suspect was found following a head count of all Corps members participating in a week-long orientation exercise at the camp.

According to the PPRO, the suspect gained unauthorised entry into the camp. It was then found that the suspect was a student at Ebonyi State University's Department of Public Administration and Faculty of Management Science.

“She confessed that she was supposed to have graduated in 2022 but had a lot of spillover courses, and in a bid to cover up the lies she’d made to her parents, she went to the market and purchased NYSC uniforms/other items meant for Corps members and sneaked into the Camp to take pictures and send to her parents before nemesis caught up with her.

“The Commissioner of Police, Nasarawa State Command, CP Umar Shehu Nadada psc, mni hereby calls on all those nursing ambitions to toe the path of these fake corps members to have a rethink as the long arm of the law will catch up with them”, the statement added.
