He has been withdrawn from his PPA at Judeen International School and redeployed to the NYSC Headquarters in Kaduna for the remainder of his service year, where he will be under closer supervision.
Although accommodation is available at the headquarters, he will not be permitted to use it and is required to report to the office daily.
An investigative panel has also been deployed to his former PPA to determine whether any misconduct occurred beyond the online comment.
Any evidence of further wrongdoing will be handed over to the relevant authorities.
In addition, the NYSC is monitoring other corps members who made similar inappropriate comments on the viral post; they will also face disciplinary action.
Officials stressed that Daniel’s case serves as a warning about the consequences of irresponsible social media use.
The NYSC reiterated its zero-tolerance policy towards any behaviour that undermines its values or compromises community safety.
