Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB) has warned the general public to beware of fraudsters circulating false information about the ongoing recruitment process into the paramilitary services under its supervision.<\/p>\n

This was contained in a statement issued on Tuesday in Abuja by the Secretary to the Board, Maj.-Gen. A.M. Jibril (Rtd).<\/p>\n

The Board said it became aware of a letter being circulated on social media platforms, claiming to contain details of the recruitment exercise.<\/p>\n

While confirming that President Bola Tinubu had approved the recruitment of 30,150 personnel into the four paramilitary services and 209 personnel into the CDCFIB Secretariat, the Board stated clearly that the official recruitment process has not yet commenced.<\/p>\n

Jibril said the Board is currently in the process of obtaining a waiver to allow for a three-week advertisement placement in national dailies, instead of the usual six-week statutory requirement, to speed up the procedure.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor the avoidance of doubt, any official recruitment exercise by the Board will be duly advertised in credible national newspapers, and the process will be fair, transparent, and completely free of charge,\u201d the statement said.<\/p>\n

A breakdown of the approved personnel is as follows: Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS): 5,150, Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS): 10,000, Federal Fire Service (FFS): 10,000, Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC): 5,000, CDCFIB Secretariat: 209<\/p>\n

The Board urged job seekers and members of the public not to fall victim to scammers taking advantage of the situation by spreading false information and defrauding unsuspecting Nigerians.<\/p>\n

It also advised the public to be vigilant and report any suspicious individuals or job offers that require payment.<\/p>\n

The CDCFIB restated its commitment to transparency, fairness, and due process in all its recruitment exercises.<\/p>\n
