The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC), alerted Nigerians to a fake competition trending online which claims to celebrate a so called “Anniversary Event”.
It said In the purported contest, unsuspecting participants are encouraged to carry out a survey by filling out a questionnaire on their knowledge of the company, with the eventual winner standing the chance of winning some cash reward of up to $8,000 (Eight thousand dollars).
Spokesman of the company,Mallam Garba deen Muhammad,said in a statement that the NNPC has nothing to do with the purported anniversary event contest .
He advised members of the public to decline any participation in the survey as it is a SCAM.
He added:”In the same vein, NNPC would also like to once again inform the public that the information circulating in the Social Media that NNPC is conducting a recruitment exercise IS NOT TRUE and the public should disregard it in its entirety.
“The NNPC hereby reiterates that whenever it decides to conduct a recruitment exercise or send out information to the public, it will do so through authentic public communication channels, particularly the NNPC’s website (www.nnpcgroup.com)”
