Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) has denied any plans by the organization to embark on a recruitment exercise, just as it called on the general public to disregard recent publication in some national newspapers that the organization will commence recruitment of 5,000 staff in March 2016.
A press statement signed by Public Relations Officer, Kings Ekpedeme, went further to clarify what the newspapers considered as “secret” recruitment into the service.
Ekpedeme explained that ‘it has become very important to state the fact to prevent any anxiety among interested persons or provide a window for fraudsters to dupe unemployed Nigerians.’ “These are facts. The Nigerian military have successfully reclaimed all parts of the North East of Nigeria from the insurgents.
“Following these victories and the imperative of moving to other areas and duties, the paramilitary agencies have been directed to have administrative presence in those areas in order to ensure the insurgents stay off.
