The denial was contained in a statement its Director of Press, Bose Aderibigbe, released at the weekend.
The statement described the reports as false saying it was being promoted by a fake Facebook account claiming to be that of the NYSC.
It reads, “The attention of the NYSC management has been drawn to the publication which is false and misleading, the public should disregard it. A fake Facebook account, NYSC Online, has also been spreading the content published by some bloggers.
“We further wish to inform our esteemed stakeholders that the so-called NYSC Online is not the official Facebook page of the National Youth Service Corps.
“The authentic information from the NYSC’s activities can be accessed through our official Facebook page on www.facebook.com/officialnysc”.
