The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has warned the general public not to fall victims to a false advertisement for a purported recruitment exercise by the Commission for 2021/2022.
The Commission said in a statement signed by its Director, Public Affairs, Dr Ikechukwu Adinde, that it would like to draw the attention of the general public to the false advertisements being circulated online soliciting applications for a purported recruitment exercise by the Commission for 2021/2022.
According to the statement, “The Commission hereby states as follows: That the Commission is NOT recruiting either directly or through any proxy for any position.
“That the general public is hereby warned to be wary and vigilant to avoid falling victim to the ploys of fraudsters and scammers who are circulating the false recruitment notices.
“That the public should note that the Commission has standard recruitment processes and procedures which it strictly abides by.
“That for accurate and reliable information, members of the public are advised to ALWAYS visit the Commission’s website (www.ncc.gov.ng) and its verified social media handles on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn and YouTube.”
Recall that only last week, the NCC announced the discovery of a spurious Facebook Account purporting to be that of the Commission.
The Commission had then advised members of the public to disregard the Facebook Page and its contents in their entirety.
“The NCC, as a responsible organisation, will continue to take measures towards protecting telecoms consumers and industry stakeholders,” the NCC assured then.
