Controller General of Nigeria Correctional Service (NCoS), Haliru Nababa, has called on the general public to disregard any speculations that the organisation is recruiting candidates.
The NCoS, in a statement signed by its Public Relations Officer, Francis Enobore, described the information as untrue and misleading by unscrupulous elements in their quest to scam unsuspecting members of the public.

The statement read: “It has come to the notice of the management of Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS) that some unscrupulous elements are scamming unsuspected members of the public, purporting to be conducting recruitment exercise on its behalf.
“The Service wishes to categorically state that there is no recruitment exercise currently ongoing and that no agent(s), syndicate(s) or private individuals have been engaged to carry out recruitment exercise on its behalf.
“Recruitment into the Service, when a vacancy exists, is usually advertised for qualified candidates to indicate their interest online. The exercise is always free and does not involve any financial inducement.”
Members of the public were therefore advised to disregard entreaties from such individuals whose interest is to defraud unsuspecting individuals.
