Culture minister, Hannatu Musawa, confirms status as corps member

The Minister of Arts, Culture and Creative Economy, Hannatu Musawa, has confirmed her status as a serving member of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC).

Many Nigerians had demanded Musawa’s removal from the Federal Executive Council (FEC) after it emerged that she is currently taking part in the one year compulsory national service.

The Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA) had last week revealed that the minister is a corps member serving in a law firm in Abuja.
