Suspected scammers have began to advertise recruitment for job seekers in the Muslim National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON).
The employment advertisement scam that has been trending in various handles of the social media was confirmed by the Commission’s Chairman, Professor Abdullahi Saleh Usman Pakistan on a Freedom Radio Kaduna programme.
According to him, “the employment advert is a scam designed by unscrupulous elements to swindle persons desiring to serve at the Commission.”
He warned those involved to discontinue the deception, or face the full wrath of the law.
Professor Abdullahi Pakistan stressed that efforts are being made through relevant security and undercover agents to track those behind the fake employment advert credited to the Commission.
He advised the public to always seek clarification on any information dished out on social media, as the Commission is guided by rules and regulations on employment.
He said that at the appropriate time and if the need arises, the Commission will duly inform the general public through officially approved means.
He said that as at now, the Commission’s main concern is a seamless and hitch free 2025 Hajj exercise.
