The Lagos State Government has warned the general public
against falling prey to fraudsters planning to defraud unsuspecting Lagosians
following the announcement by Governor Akinwunmi Ambode to inject additional
1000 teachers into the state public schools.
According to a release by the Office of the Permanent
Secretary, Ministry of Education, Adebunmi Adekanye, some faceless individuals
have been collecting details of intending applicants on some social media
platforms with a promise to help them secure employment as teachers in the
State.
The Permanent Secretary counselled interested applicants to
wait for the display of the vacancy advertisement on the official portal of the
State Government dedicated for recruitment, adding that any request for bio-data
on any other social media platform should be disregarded as it is not
authorised.
She disclosed that approval of the framework for the
recruitment was still being processed and the public will be duly provided
information on procedures for applying for the vacant positions.
