The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC), has drawn the attention of the general public to a fake competition trending online which claims to celebrate a so called “Anniversary Event”.
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).
The NNPC in a statement said it has nothing to do with the purported anniversary event contest and advised members of the public to decline any participation in the survey as it is a SCAM.
In the same vein, NNPC informed the public that the information circulating in the Social Media purporting that it is NNPC is conducting a recruitment exercise IS NOT TRUE and warned the public to disregard it in its entirety.
The NNPC in the statement by Garba Deen Muhammad, Group General Manager, Group Public Affairs Division, reiterated 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).
