INEC denies recruiting ad hoc staff ahead of 2027 elections
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has denied reports that it has started recruiting and training ad hoc staff ahead of the 2027 General Election.
The Commission, in a statement shared on its verified social media handle, said the information circulating online was false.
INEC also warned the public against clicking or sharing the link being circulated, describing it as fake.
The electoral body advised Nigerians to rely only on its official communication channels for authentic information about recruitment, training and other preparations for the 2027 elections.
“The attention of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has been drawn to a message circulating online claiming that the Commission is currently recruiting and training ad hoc staff for the 2027 General Election and directing applicants to: (gvly.xyz/INEC-Ad-hoc-St…),” INEC said.
“THIS INFORMATION IS NOT FROM INEC. The website/link being circulated is NOT an official INEC recruitment portal.
The Commission warned members of the public not to click on the link, submit personal details, upload documents or make any payment on the platform.
“Members of the public are strongly advised NOT to click on the link, submit personal information, upload documents or make any payment through the platform,” it stated.
INEC said all official recruitment and election-related announcements are published only through its verified communication channels and website, inecnigeria.org.
“The Commission has previously warned the public about fraudulent websites and fake recruitment advertisements purporting to originate from INEC,” the statement added.
“Please disregard and do not circulate this false recruitment notice. Stay informed. Stay safe. Always verify before you click. #StopFakeNews”
