Boss Mustapha, secretary to the government of the federation (SGF), has urged Nigerians to disregard any invitation to submit their curriculum vitae for appointment into government agencies.

Willie Bassey, director of information at the SGF office, released a statement to this effect on Tuesday.

The SGF was quoted as saying that an advertisement on social media asking applicants to pay for a job is fake.

“The information circulating on the social media through emails, text messages, urging members of the public to submit their CVs at a fee, to a non-existing desk at the SFG’s office for appointments is false,” the statement reads.

Mustapha also said his office did not advertise for the procurement of medical diagnostic equipment.

“The SGF has also observed with dismay, that such fraudsters have become so desperate to such an extent that they resort to sending fake advertisements for supply of some medical diagnostic equipment to his office,” he said.

“In view of the above, the SGF warns originators of such fraudulent requests to desist forthwith from using his office to fleece unsuspecting members of the public or face the wrath of the law.”
