  • NIS recruitment: Only 1,112 spaces available – Dambazzau

    …as over 40,000 candidates already applied

    Minister of Interior, Lt. Gen. Abdulrahaman Dambazzau (rtd), has said that only 1,112 applicants will be employed in the ongoing Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) recruitment.

    Dambazzau said this on Monday in Abuja, shortly after the presentation of the handbook on the operations of the Presidential Executive Order at the NIS headquarters.

    Reports say more than 40,000 applicants had already applied for the advertised NIS jobs.

    “There were two aborted Immigration recruitment that were done. The first one led to fatality and casualties. The second one was dispersed following discovery of so many abnormalities which two thousands of them were sent home.

    “When we came in November 2015, we looked at the whole thing and we discovered for the second one that it was not all the faults of the candidates as such but it was the process that was followed.

    “So, we wrote a memo to Mr President that we should recall those candidates, 2000 of them, so that we can reassess them and the President graciously approved that and we advertised in papers and I think about 1,500 or so reported and out of this number 888 qualified for that recruitment.

    Now the balance of 1, 112 is what we are working on now, that is the reason of the recent advertisement by the Nigerian Immigration Service to recruit that balance of 1,112 and this is the process we are in now,” the Minister said.

  • We are not recruiting – NNPC declares

    We are not recruiting – NNPC declares

    The Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), has reiterated its appeal to the public to disregard any announcement of recruitment or invitation to its interview.

    The Group General Manager, Group Public Affairs Division, Mr Ndu Ughamadu, made the disclaimer in a statement in Abuja on Friday.

    According to him, the announcement is the third in recent times coming from recurrent fraudulent vacancy claims on various social media platforms purporting to have emanated from the corporation.

    “We are constrained to announce, once again, that NNPC is not recruiting at the moment.

    ”Members of the public are, therefore, advised to disregard any vacancy announcement on any online or social media platform as they are the handiwork of fraudsters intent on fleecing innocent Nigerians,” Ughamadu said.

    He said the syndicate’s method of operation included deployment of various means, ranging from text messages to forged letters inviting gullible job seekers for non-existing job interviews, to extort money from them.

    ”To this end, we wish to once again appeal to members of the public, particularly unsuspecting applicants, to be wary of fraudulent vacancy announcements or invitations for job interviews at the NNPC Towers.

    ”Anyone who entertains such invitations or deals with peddlers of such invitation does so at his or
    her own risk,’’ the spokesperson reiterated.

    He advised anyone contacted for the purpose ,other than through advertisement duly placed by the Corporation in national newspapers, should report such invitations to relevant law enforcement agencies.

    He pledged that the corporation would continue to report and engage security agencies on such matters.
