The Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has alerted the public on the fraudulent advertisement for vacancies in the organisation on some online job platforms.
The agency said in a statement signed by its spokesman, Sam Adurogbnoye that the recruitment post making rounds on social media about various positions advertised on the Authority’s website was misguided and a misinterpretation of the federal government initiative.
“For the purpose of clarity, the career programme on the NCAA website is an initiative of the federal government of Nigeria created to collate data of eligible Nigerians to tackle unemployment in Nigeria and who wish to pursue career in the aviation industry.
“The database of pilots, cabin crew, engineers etc would be made available for emerging aviation career opportunities in Nigeria and other countries,” the statement said.
It also explained that NCAA is driving this programme as a federal government agency for the benefit of unemployed aviation professionals and therefore urges the general public to disregard the fictitious advertisement.
“The Authority will continue to support all federal government initiatives to create employment for Nigerians.
Similarly, if and when there are job opportunities at the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority, we would follow due process,” the statement also said.
