The Universal Basic Education Commission, UBEC, has warned Nigerians against fake sites for the recruitment of teachers in the country.
Speaking in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria, NAN, in Abuja, the Commission’s Public Relations Officer, David Apeh, said the recruitment sites making the rounds on social media were fake.
Reports indicated that Nigerians have been visiting the recruitment sites
Recall that the former Minister of State for Education, Yusuf Sununu, had earlier said the Federal Government would recruit 3,500 teachers for its Unity Colleges.
Sununu, who spoke at a two-day national stakeholders’ forum on Senior Secondary Education in Nigeria, said the recruitment would improve the country’s quality of education.
Reacting to the inability to log onto the sites, Apeh said such recruitment sites did not emanate from the commission as there are no intention to recruit teachers for now.
“The President just appointed a new Executive Secretary for UBEC and she recently assumed office.
” For now, the Commission has not opened any portal for teachers recruitment in the country.
“We will surely communicate with the public when we want to recruit,” he said.
They should provide the actual site to avoid people being scammed.
