The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited has denied allegations of selling employment slots, stating that anyone who pays money to anyone for any kind of employment in the company does it at his or her own risk.
The statement issued on Saturday by the NNPC Chief Corporate Communications Officer, Olufemi Soneye, noted that there is no bit of truth in the insinuations that the company has employment slots on offer to anyone who wishes to buy emphasising that the company recruitment is a straightforward process and does not include the sale of slots.
The statement clarifies, “The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Ltd. (NNPC Ltd.) has called on members of the public, especially jobseekers, to discountenance rumours of employment slots for sale.
“The company states that there is no iota of truth in the insinuations that it has employment slots on offer to anyone who wishes to buy, describing such as antics of fraudsters who want to take advantage of unsuspecting applicants.
“It cautions that as a responsible corporate entity, recruitment into the company is a straightforward process and does not involve the sale of slots or inducement of any kind. It warns that anyone who pays money to anyone for any job in the company does so at his or her own risk.”
