The Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria, AMCON, has issued a public notice on fraudulent recruitment schemes that is prevalent in the country warning that it is not currently conducting any recruitment exercises and has not engaged any agencies to do so on its behalf.
Jude Nwauzor, AMCON Head of Corporate Communications, disclosed this in a statement released on Wednesday.
The statement reads, “The attention of the Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria (AMCON) has been drawn to some inaccurate and fake stories that are spreading on some online publications, particularly Nairaland Forum regarding the purported AMCON 2024/2025 recruitment exercise.
“The general public is hereby informed that these stories are brazen falsehoods meant to mislead innocent job seekers as well as the general public as AMCON is not currently recruiting.”
Nwauzor further explained, “We want the public to also note that the Corporation has also not engaged any firm or agency to recruit on its behalf. Please don’t fall prey to fraudsters”.
He urged the public to disregard the misrepresentations and not fall into the hands of online fraudsters who claim to work for or represent AMCON as the Corporation is not recruiting at the moment.
“As a law-abiding recovery agency of the Federal Government of Nigeria, AMCON at all times is guided within the confines of the law and will continue to act accordingly,” Nwauzor added.
