The National Population Commission says its attention has been drawn to a fake website
https://qpetition.org/NPC-Ad-Hoc-Staff-Recruitment.html created by some mischief makers
concerning the purported recruitment for the 2025 Population and Housing Census with the
intention to defraud unsuspecting citizens.
Erelu Taibat Yemi Oloruntoba Director, Public Affairs in a statement said the Commission informed the public that it is not undergoing any census Ad-hoc Staff recruitment exercise at the moment as President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR has not issued a proclamation date for the conduct of the next Population and Housing Census.
The statement noted, “Whenever Mr. President fixes a date for the conduct of the upcoming Population and Housing Census and the Commission wants to recruit Ad-hoc staff for the census exercise, it will be announced on the national media and the NPC social media platforms and website.”
The Commission implores the general public to disregard the fake website and its false
information trending online to avoid falling victim to swindlers.
The statement however maintained that the Commission is taking every measure to uncover those behind the fake website.
It maintained, “Nigerians are advised always to get
the correct information concerning the Commission’s activities on the official NPC social
media handles and website.
“We will continue to update the populace on developments regarding the conduct of the first
biometric Population and Housing Census in Nigeria as events unfold.
“We urge everyone to support the Commission to ensure a successful census exercise.” It however added.
