The Federal Fire Service yesterday advised Nigerians to be wary of fraudsters claiming to be recruiting personnel for the Para-military organisation.
This is contained in a statement signed by the spokesman of the Fire Service, Mr Elechi Collins, an Asssistant Controller, and made available to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja.
The statement said the warning became necessary in view of the persistent “false story making the rounds that there is an ongoing recruitment exercise in the organisation’’.
It said the falsehood was being peddled by fraudsters with the intention to dupe unsuspecting members of the public.
“Members of the public are advised not to deal with such elements in the society, who are out to dupe,’’ the statement said.
It said that the recruitment of personnel into the service was always open with adequate publicity and advertorials to sensitise Nigerians.
“The fire service recruitment is statutorily supervised by the board of all paramilitary organisations under the Ministry of Interior,’’ the statement added. (NAN)
