The Oyo State government on Monday warned job seekers to be wary of fraudsters going around extorting money from them in the name of giving them jobs in the state.
Chairman, Oyo State Universal Education Board (SUBEB), Dr Nureni Adeniran, who disclosed this while interacting with journalists on Monday in Ibadan, said many people have contacted him and those close to him on the purported recruitment.
He warned the public to be wary of individuals going around extorting money from people with the claim that Oyo State Universal Education Board (SUBEB) was recruiting.
According to him, parents, guardians and potential job seekers should be careful so as not to fall into the hands of the unscrupulous elements that were poised to dupe them in the guise of selling employment forms and assisting them in getting jobs.
Adeniran said, “Oyo State Government’s attention has been drawn to activities of syndicates extorting money from unsuspecting members of the public under the guise of recruitment in the teaching services of the State. Please disregard such information, as it is false and misleading.
“We are using this medium to call on the general public, especially parents, guardians as well as our young job seekers not to fall victims of these fraudsters.”
He revealed that efforts were ongoing to track and apprehend the fraudsters, and called on members of the public not to fall victim of their antics under the guise of public recruitment as the current administration was not recruiting.
Adeniran said the necessary medium of relating with the public would be used whenever there would be need for recruitment.
“The general public should note that Oyo SUBEB has not begun any form of recruitment exercise. It is pertinent that we state that Oyo SUBEB or the State Government is currently not recruiting. Therefore, the information is targeted at deceiving unsuspecting members of the public.
“We would be transparent in our operations and make any recruitment exercise known to the public, through legitimate means whenever the State will be recruiting.
“Oyo State Government will announce this, when the time comes”we would be transparent in our operations and make any recruitment exercise known to the public, through legitimate means,” he said.
