Minister Of Arts Hannatu Musa Musawa Opens Up On Serving As Corps Member While In Office (Video)Hannatu Musa Musawa, the Minister of Arts, Culture, and Creative Economy, defended her decision to accept a ministerial position while participating in the mandatory one-year National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) program. In an interview on Sunday Politics on Channels Television, Musawa addressed questions regarding her eligibility without presenting an NYSC certificate, which is a requirement for public office seekers.

Musawa clarified that she did not violate any laws, stating that she had completed “two years” of national youth service in her lifetime. “There have been many different accounts of this situation. The fact that I’m here indicates that I did nothing wrong,” she asserted. She acknowledged the various narratives circulating on social media and mentioned that the matter had been resolved legally.

When asked if she owes an explanation to Nigerians regarding the controversy, Musawa reiterated that her actions were lawful. “I did not break the law. I completed my NYSC. I can assure you that everything I did was in accordance with the law,” she explained.

Musawa was appointed as minister in August 2023 while still serving as a corps member. Notably, during her Senate screening, lawmakers did not inquire about her NYSC certificate.
