Short service recruitment advertisement fake, says army
The Nigerian Army has dismissed an advertisement in circulation purporting recruitment into the Direct Short Service Commission and Short Service Commission.
The Acting Director, Army Public Relations, Lt.-Col. Appolonia Anele, in a statement on Saturday said the advertisement was fake and did not emanate from the army.
Ms Anele said that the army had not commenced recruitment or commissioning exercises for DSSC or SSC for the year.
She urged members of the public to disregard the fake advertisement.
Ms Anele said the public would be duly informed through official channels whenever such recruitment exercises were scheduled to begin.
She said, “The Nigerian Army warns all to be cautious and avoid falling prey to fraudsters who exploit such fake information to deceive and defraud unsuspecting individuals. Anyone with information about such fraudulent activities or individuals should promptly report to the appropriate authorities for necessary action.’’
