Minister Musawa Defends Her Appointment Despite NYSC Concerns
Minister of Art, Culture, and Creative Economy, Hannatu Musa Musawa, has spoken out about concerns surrounding her ministerial appointment while still undergoing the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC).
In an interview on Sunday Politics with Channels Television, Musawa insisted that she did not break any laws by accepting the role.
She explained that she has already completed two years of national service and followed all legal requirements.
“There’s been a lot of talk about the situation, but I did nothing wrong,” she said. “I finished my NYSC and followed the rules.”
Musawa also mentioned that although the matter has caused public discussion, she will provide full details in the future.
The minister was appointed in August 2023, while still serving as a corps member, and no questions about her NYSC status were raised during her Senate screening.
