The Osun State Government has issued a stern warning to job seekers, cautioning them to be vigilant and avoid falling prey to fraudsters who frequently deceive individuals while falsely guaranteeing white-collar job opportunities.
Mallam Olawale Rasheed, the spokesperson for the state governor, delivered this cautionary message in Osogbo through an official statement.
He unequivocally refuted the ongoing rumors circulating throughout the state regarding an ongoing recruitment drive by the government, emphasizing that no such recruitment is taking place at the moment.
In his statement, Rasheed emphasized, "Please remain cautious and vigilant, steering clear of fraudsters who impersonate government agents, as the state government is not presently engaged in any recruitment process."
He further urged the general public to dismiss any such deceptive information and promptly report any fraudulent attempts that exploit the name of the Osun State Government to the appropriate authorities. The spokesperson made it clear that official government announcements regarding recruitment will be disseminated through authorized channels when the government is indeed ready to initiate the recruitment process.
He reiterated, "Any information regarding recruitment shared on social media platforms is entirely false and should not be trusted. The Osun State Government wants to clarify that there are no ongoing recruitment efforts within the State Civil Service Commission for any positions."
Rasheed also clarified that the collection of employment forms by the Civil Service Commission is a standard procedure, emphasizing that such routine activities should not be misinterpreted as an indication that the state government has commenced recruitment procedures.
