LAGOS TASKFORCE DEBUNKS FAKE RECRUITMENT EXERCISE


The Lagos State Taskforce has debunked an online publication being circulated about an ongoing recruitment exercise at the Agency, declaring the viral post as a figment of the imagination of dubious-minded individuals.

A statement signed by the Chairman of the Task Force, CSP Shola Jejeloye, stressed that there is no ongoing recruitment exercise at the Agency. 

He emphasised that recruitments into Agencies of the State Government are carried out by the State Civil Service Commission or the Public Service Office of the State and vacancies are disseminated through all State Government information outlets, as well as print and electronic media platforms.

The Chairman, therefore, warned unsuspecting members of the public to disregard the bogus recruitment publication, maintaining that it is the handwork of mischief makers and charlatans who aim to scam residents of the State.

CSP Jejeloye averred that the Agency will do everything humanly possible to determine the origin of the message and arrest everyone behind the fake online publication.
