The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) has issued a warning to Nigerians about a fraudulent Facebook post falsely claiming that the agency is recruiting.

In a statement shared on its official X account on Wednesday, the NIS clarified that there is no ongoing recruitment. The agency emphasized that the only legitimate exercise was recently conducted by the Civil Defence, Corrections, Fire and Immigration Board (CDCFIB), with results still pending.

“The public is advised to disregard such posts, avoid any engagement with them, and report the pages immediately,” the statement read.

The NIS reaffirmed its commitment to conducting all recruitment exercises transparently and through official channels. It also reminded the public that any legitimate announcements will be made only via its official communication platforms.

The agency, responsible for border control, visa issuance, and enforcing immigration laws in Nigeria, urged citizens to remain vigilant against scams and fraudulent schemes.
