NYSC leadership says corps members must operate responsibly online and obey existing digital regulations.
The Director-General of the National Youth Service Corps has warned corps members against violating social media laws, stressing the need for discipline and responsible online conduct.
The NYSC boss stated that corps members are expected to obey regulations guiding digital communication and avoid activities capable of tarnishing the image of the scheme.
The warning comes amid growing concerns over misinformation, cyberbullying and controversial online posts involving young Nigerians across different social media platforms.
Officials say corps members must remain conscious of the legal implications of their online activities, especially during their service year when they are regarded as representatives of the NYSC scheme.
The statement has already generated mixed reactions online, with some Nigerians supporting stricter digital responsibility while others raised concerns about freedom of expression.
