The controversy over alleged forgery of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) exemption certificate by Minister of Finance, Mrs Kemi Adeosun may not disappear anytime soon.

This is as an allegedly photoshopped photo of the minister in NYSC uniform has rent the social media air with Nigerians reacting to the certificate saga.

The New Diplomat Saturday reported the President of Centre for Anti-corruption and Open Leadership (CACOL), Debo Adeniran called for the thorough investigation of the allegation against the Minister, asking President Muhammadu Buhari not to spare her.

However, as at the time of filing this report, the Finance Minister, presidency and the NYSC have all kept mum on allegation despite the many reactions it has elicited among Nigerians.

Reactions:
