(SINL NIGERIA) The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has alerted the public of ongoing activities of fraudulent individuals, including some posing as staff of the Corps, who extort unsuspecting members of the public with false promises of securing them employment in the Corps.
A statement on Monday by Corps Public Education Officer, Olusegun Ogungbemide, Assistant Corps Marshal and made available to SINL Nigeria Online said “these scammers go as far as issuing fake call-up letters to training schools and the FRSC Academy in a desperate attempt to deceive innocent job seekers and defraud them of their hard earned money”.
Ogungbemide explained that consequent upon the activities of scammers, “the Corps wishes to categorically state that FRSC recruitment processes are transparent, merit based, and strictly communicated through national newspapers television stations, and our official channels”.
“At no time did the Corps mandate its Personnel, or representatives to demand money or any form of gratification from applicants in exchange for employment.
“Members of the public are therefore strongly advised to disregard any such offers and report perpetrators to the nearest FRSC Command, law enforcement agency, or through the Corps’ official communication platforms”.
Meanwhile, FRSC reiterated its resolve to upholding integrity, fairness, and transparency in all recruitment exercises.
“Nigerians are urged to remain vigilant, verify all information from official FRSC sources, (facebook.com/FRSCNigeria-X.com/FRSCNigeria-Instagram.com/FRSCNigeria-youtube.com/FRSCNigeria), as well as www.frsc.gov.ng and resist the temptation of patronising fraudsters whose sole intent is to exploit their desperation” the statement concluded.
