The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has once again warned Nigerians against a bogus portal for ad hoc staff recruitment for the 2023 general election.
INEC stated this in a brief message delivered on Tuesday in Abuja by Chief Press Secretary to INEC Chairman, Mr Rotimi Oyekanmi.
Oyekanmi claimed that the portal was bogus because the commission was no longer recruiting for the election and its official website had been shut down.
"The website/blog listed below is advertising ad hoc staff positions for the general election in 2023.
"However, the commission is no longer recruiting ad hoc staff for the 2023 General Election.
"On December 14, 2022, the INEC ad hoc staff recruitment portal was officially shut down.
"Therefore, the site, with the URL - http://www.yournewclaims.com/Inec-Recriutment/ is fake. It is intended to defraud unsuspecting members of the public. Nigerians should disregard it,” he said.
Prime9jaOnline reports that INEC had on Oct. 5, 2022 raised alarm on similar fake ad hoc recruitment link inecnigeria.govservice.site being circulated online.
Prime9jaOnline reports that the commission on Sept. 7, 2022 announced that its official recruitment portal for 2023 general election (www.pres.inecnigeria.org) would be opened to the public on Wednesday Sept. 14, 2022 by 8 a.m. and would be closed on Wednesday, Dec. 14, by 8p.m.
