Abuja (FLOWERBUDNEWS): The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has dissociated itself from a fake announcement of a recruitment exercise by the Agency.
In a statement posted on its official X handle, NAFDAC described a Press release circulating on social media, and claiming that the Agency had announced a recruitment exercise as FAKE.
”NAFDAC wishes to state clearly that the purported press release did not originate from the Agency and is entirely false,” the Agency declared.
It stated:
NAFDAC has become aware of a fake press release circulating on social media that falsely claims the Agency has announced a recruitment exercise.
NAFDAC wishes to state clearly that the purported press release did not originate from the Agency and is entirely false.
While NAFDAC periodically conducts recruitment exercises to engage qualified Nigerians, no such announcement has been made at this time.
The Agency cautions members of the public against engaging with or relying on fraudulent recruitment information, which is often circulated with the intent of misleading and extorting unsuspecting applicants.
For the avoidance of doubt, NAFDAC has not issued any press release or notice announcing a new recruitment exercise. All authentic information from the Agency is communicated exclusively through the official NAFDAC website and recognised, verified communication channels.
NAFDAC urges the public to remain vigilant, disregard such fake announcements, and always verify information directly from official NAFDAC platforms.
