Immigration to jobseekers: We’re not recruiting

The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) has warned Nigerians against the increasing number of fake recruitment advertisements circulating online.

The NIS gave the warning in a statement issued by the Service Public Relations Officer, Kenneth Udo, on Wednesday, September 25, 2024.

The statement read: “The attention of the Comptroller General of Nigeria Immigration Service, Kemi Nandap, has been drawn to the alarming increase in fake recruitment activities being perpetrated by fraudsters.

“The Nigeria Immigration Service maintains that all recruitment exercises are conducted in a transparent, free and merit-based manner. Vacancies are advertised through the NIS website, official government channels and recognised national newspapers.

“The NIS is 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 and professionalism in all its operations.”

Udo further quoted the NIS Comptroller General as urging Nigerians to remain vigilant and refrain from using fraudulent recruitment schemes circulating online.

“Anyone who receives unsolicited messages or is approached by individuals claiming to represent the NIS on recruitment matters should report to NIS through the official channels,” he added.
