The Civil Defence Correctional Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB) has issued a warning to the public, urging them to disregard recent online publications falsely claiming to provide recruitment timelines for the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) and updates on the ongoing Federal Fire Service (FFS) recruitment. 

This clarification was contained in an official statement released by Ja’afaru Ahmed, Secretary to the Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board, aimed at correcting the misinformation and alerting the public to potential scams. 

In the statement, the Board emphasized that the online publications in question, which purported to provide timelines for NIS recruitment and updates on the Federal Fire Service recruitment, did not originate from the Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board. 

“The attention of the Civil Defence Correctional Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB) has been drawn to two online publications informing the general public of a purported timeline for recruitment into the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) as well as a public notice on the ongoing Federal Fire Service (FFS) recruitment.  

“The Board wishes to inform the general public that the purported online publications did not emanate from the Board and, as such, should be disregarded,” the statement read in part.  

Furthermore, the statement served as a cautionary notice to the public, warning them about the activities of fake recruitment syndicates and racketeers who may be attempting to exploit unsuspecting individuals. 

Also, the Board wishes to warn members of the public to be wary of the activities of fake recruitment syndicates and racketeers.

The Board expressed concern over these fraudulent activities, advising people to be vigilant and not fall prey to these scams.
