NIGERIA Immigration Service (NIS) today issued a statement on a fraudulent recruitment process ongoing into the service warning Nigerians to steer clear of such enrollment where applicants are required to visit the fake website.
A statement made available by the Service Public Relations Officer, Assistant Comptroller of Immigration, Amos Okpu (mnipr) for the Comptroller General of Immigration said the Service is currently not conducting any recruitment exercise
The statement read,”The attention of the Comptroller General of Immigration, CGI Muhammad Babandede MFR has been drawn to some online publications inviting unsuspecting job applicants to apply for some vacancies in the Service.
“ In the said publications, applicants are required to visit a certain website indicated as http://immigrationrecruitment.org/?p=apply-online to apply for job vacancies in the Nigeria Immigration Service. Apart from the fact that this portal address is unconventional and thus fraudulent, the entire content of the publication is completely untrue.
“They did indicate therein that screening exercise for applicants is slated for the 19th July, 2021. This is not only false, deceptive but also a calculated attempt to defraud unsuspecting job seekers. Consequently, the Comptroller General wishes to use this medium to advice members of the public to IGNORE the publication as the Service is currently not conducting any recruitment exercise.
