The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) has disowned a recruitment advertisement purportedly by the corporation currently trending in the social media.

The corporation in a statement by its Group General Manager, Group Public Affairs, Mr Ndu Ughamadu, in Abuja on Wednesday, described the advertisement as phoney.

It advised unsuspecting members of the public to be wary of the scam.

“The advertisement, set in NNPC’s corporate colour with its logo and a corporate picture, sets candidates’ entry requirements to include Master’s degree, Bachelor’s degree, Higher National Diploma (HND) and National Diploma, is fake.

“The recruitment announcement or invitation to recruitment interview of this nature appearing intermittently in the social media should be discountenanced,’’ it said

According to the statement, the NNPC is not carrying out any recruitment exercise now.

“The National Oil Company dissociated itself from the fake e-mail address to which unsuspecting prospects were asked to direct their Curriculum Vitae in the placement advert,’’ it added.

The corporation further reminded job seekers to note the antics of scammers who deploy, on social media platforms, such communication strategies as text messages, vacancy announcements and forged letters inviting them for non-existing job interviews.

These, it said, were tricks to extort money from them, and cautioned that any applicant who entertained such invitations would have himself or herself to blame.

It encouraged those who had already fallen victims to volunteer information to the law enforcement agencies.

The corporation stated that it would as usual advertise at appropriate time, vacancies in the corporation through the national dailies.

Forget it!! there is underground recruitment exercise going on since 27th August, 2018. I have proofs

Same way CBN, FIRS and the likes were also denied, yet the children of the so called "big men" got hooked to such jobs. Now its the turn of NNPC. This Government has taken Nepotism and Prejudice to a whole new level. Spits.

Of course it is true as status quo changed. They only issue statement to children of poor men.

NNPC should be scrapped. it is doing more harm than good to the national economy

Have the NNPC ever done or announced or advertised any recruitment exercise before?

If they didn't came out to deny it. There will be commotion everywhere in the country.. But all is fake because there is recruitment going on there...
Only If u no ur way that's all

Later dem go dey advise boys not to do street. Federal govt job placements are the highest streets ever. If you know, you know

They should give the jobs to their children. I don’t need it since I’m already self employed.

God Bless America...the street never disappoints as long as you work smart and stay focused.

the real one happens in parlors in maitama

Fake recruitment, is expected to hear this. After they have recruited their families
friends, and concubines they foolishly say there is nothing that. since there is nobody to correct this anomaly and get it corrected. Nigeria youths, amongst the recycling old vampires, none is worth voting for. All these people are holding the destine of Nigerian youth. Vote for the youth

Mailanti Baru, has to recruit all his families. Hear what is going in DPR, Nigerian leaders are failure. I am sure Festus Kayamo will say the president does not know what goes on Nigeria.
