The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Ltd) has dismissed as untrue and warned the public against purported recruitment announcements for the Port Harcourt Refining Company (PHRC) as fraudulent.

In a statement issued on January 17, the company clarified that no separate recruitment process is underway for the Port Harcourt Refinery.

Instead, the ongoing recruitment exercise launched last year covers all NNPC businesses, with shortlisted candidates currently advancing to the interview stage.

Describing the fake recruitment link circulating online as a scam, the Chief Corporate Communications Officer, Olufemi Soneye, stated, ?The purported recruitment link being circulated on various online platforms is the handiwork of fraudsters who are keen on taking advantage of the newly revamped Port Harcourt Refinery to fleece unsuspecting members of the public with a phantom recruitment announcement.?

NNPC advised the public to remain vigilant and avoid falling victim to such schemes.

For accurate updates, the company urged individuals to rely solely on official communication channels. (The Guardian)
