The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited has notified the public of fraudulent recruitment advertisment circulating online, stating that it did not originate from its management.

The company warned job seekers to beware of the fraudulent recruitment scheme so as not to fall victims of it while stressing that the NNPCL is not conducting any hiring process at the moment.

This is contained in a statement issued on NNPCL’s official X handle on Friday.

The company noted that recruitment exercise would only be announced through its official channels.

NNPCL reiterated that its recruitment process is “transparent, merit-based, and requires no external assistance.”

The company urged Nigerians to disregard any unofficial job advertisements that claim to be from NNPC Ltd., as they could be attempts to defraud unsuspecting applicants.

The management further assured the public that it remains committed to upholding the integrity of its hiring process and would notify Nigerians whenever recruitment officially commences.

“We advise the public to always verify information directly from our official platforms to avoid being misled by scammers,” NNPC Ltd. stated.
