The Nigerian naval high command has warned the public against falling victim of false naval reference hospital recruitment exercise.
Naval spokesman, Commodore Ayo Vaughan who advised Nigerians against the scam noted that the attention of the Nigerian Navy was drawn to a message circulating on social media groups which states that Nigerian Navy Reference Hospital is conducting Recruitment for 2023 hence the message called interested and eligible candidates to submit their written application letter and other relevant credentials to Naval Headquarters, Abuja (Attention: The Director of Naval Medical Services).
“The message further advised applicants to include contact phone number and addresses of 3 referees one of whom must be from the applicant’s institution.
“For the avoidance of doubt, there is no such recruitment by the Nigerian Navy Medical Services. It is an attempt to mislead and possibly defraud innocent and unsuspecting members of the public.
“Against this backdrop, members of the public are advised to be careful and cautions so as not be defrauded by criminals and fraudsters who are behind the false recruitment exercise. The Nigerian Navy’s Recruitment exercises are duly publicized and announced on both traditional and social media. Please disregard the false and fake message.”
