NIS Speaks Over Ongoing Recruitment
The Nigeria Immigration Service, NIS, on Friday warned the public against fraudulent recruitment advertisements, stating that no recruitment exercise is currently ongoing.
A statement by the NIS Spokesman, Akinsola Akinlabi in Abuja said that all recruitment exercises were conducted in a transparent, free, and merit-based manner.
Akinlabi reported vacancies were advertised through the NIS website, official government channels, and recognised national newspapers.
“The attention of the Comptroller General of the Nigeria Immigration Service, Kemi Nandap, has been drawn to the alarming increase in fake recruitment activities being perpetrated by fraudsters.
“The NIS wishes to state that no recruitment exercise is currently ongoing. We are working closely with relevant authorities to apprehend those involved in these fraudulent activities and bring them to justice.
“The Service remains committed to upholding the highest standards of integrity in all its operations.
“Anyone who receives unsolicited messages or is approached by individuals claiming to represent the NIS on recruitment matters should report to the Nigeria Immigration Service,” he said.
