EFCC Warns against
Fake Recruitment Notice
The
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, (EFCC) on Monday dissociated itself
from online advertisement, which suggested that the commission is currently
undergoing a recruitment exercise.
A statement signed by the
commission spokesperson Mr. Wilson Uwujaren, stated that: "EFCC wishes to
alert the general public about the activities of some unscrupulous elements who
have cashed in on the plan by the Commission to recruit more personnel to
defraud unsuspecting job seekers."
Uwujaren
who said vacancies in EFCC are normally advertised in major newspapers or on
the commissions official website, added that such sensitive announcement
would not be made through proxy or online portals.
"In
recent weeks, some unscrupulous online portals have featured advertisements
supposedly from the EFCC, inviting applications for employment into the service
of the Commission. One of such advertisements appeared in Forum Nigeria, with
the link,http://forumng.com/ng/forum/279564/nigeria-efcc-recruitment- informing
job seekers that 'application form is out', and advising them to contact a GSM
number, for further information and registration guideline."
"The
Commission wishes to dissociate itself from these advertorials. For the
avoidance of doubt, there is no recruitment currently going on in the EFCC. The
announcement by the Chairman of the Commission, Ibrahim Magu, that the EFCC
intends to recruit more staff remain a proposal which is yet to be approved.
The Commission therefore advises job seekers to be wary of any vacancy
announcement online and report any solicitation for money in exchange of job
placement in the EFCC, to the nearest police station."
