The Nigeria Immigration Service has said it is not recruiting at the moment as being announced by some people, especially on the social media.
In a statement on Friday, the Service said those passing on the message are only out to deceive the unsuspecting public.
The statement, signed by the Public Relations Officer of the NIS, Ekpedeme King, reads: “The attention of the Comptroller General of Nigeria Immigration Service, Martins Kure Abeshi has been drawn to the fact that some faceless individuals are deceiving unsuspecting members of the public with promises of job placement into the Nigeria Immigration Service.
“It has therefore, become imperative to state categorically that the Nigeria Immigration Service is not engaged in any recruitment exercise.
“Members of the public are hereby ADVISED to ignore any offer of employment as such activity remains the handiwork of fraudsters who are out to deceive unsuspecting members of the public with the aim of swindling them of their hard earned money.
“The NIS has a duty to advertise any recruitment exercise into the Nigeria Immigration Service in line with the extant laws.”
