Picture of Corp member killed in #EndSARS protest is from a movie – NYSC
The management of the National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, has said that no Corp member was killed in any EndSARS protests in the country.
In a statement issued, the NYSC said that a viral picture of a dead man in its uniform believed to have died in one of the protests is from a movie.
The management said that the movie was shot by the Nigerian Christian Corpers Fellowship (NCCF).
The statement reads:
“The attention of Management of the NYSC has been drawn to the fake picture of a Corps Member, which unfortunately has gone viral, purported to have been killed during the #ENDSARS protest.
“Management hereby clarifies that no Corps Member was shot during the said protest in Lagos, Rivers State or elsewhere as mischievously conveyed.
“Investigation reveals that the picture was from a movie produced some years ago by the Nigerian Christian Corpers Fellowship (NCCF), titled “HEAL OUR LAND OH LORD”.
