 DISCLAIMER ON FRAUDULENT USE OF SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS IMPERSONATING NDA COMMANDANT


The attention of the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) has been drawn to the activities of fraudsters using several social media platforms particularly Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, Instagram and X (Twitter) to impersonate the Commandant, Major General Oluyemi Thomas Olatoye by fraudulently offering contracts to unsuspecting members of the public.


The Academy wishes to unambiguously state that the said accounts are schemes created with the intent to deceive and defraud individuals of their hard-earned resources. Members of the public are hereby strongly advised to disregard and avoid any engagement with the fraudulent accounts. Any interaction with such entities is done at the individual’s risk, as the NDA will not be held liable for any resulting loss.


For the avoidance of doubt, the Nigerian Defence Academy communicates officially with the public only through its verified channels, including its website:nda.edu.ng, official social media handles facebook:Nigerian Defence Academy, X: @NDefenceacademy,Tik Tok @ndefeneceacademy Instagram:@nigeriandefenceacademy and through reputable national newspapers. 


Furthermore, the public is also informed that the NDA Commandant does not conduct official engagements or communication via personal social media accounts or unofficial online platforms.The general public is therefore urged to remain vigilant and report suspicious activities to the appropriate authorities.
