Management of the National Service Scheme (NSS) has cautioned personnel against misinformation on reposting circulating on social media.
According to the NSS, a person using the name and contact Mr. Victor NSS-0548313412 has been circulating false information about the Scheme’s Deployment Modules under Teaching, Agric, and Accounting Aid.
The person is luring unsuspecting National Service Personnel to contact him and pay some amount of money for a change of postings.
The NSS stressed that there are no such arrangements for the change of postings of service personnel posted under the modules.
“The Scheme does not know any such person as MR. VICTOR NSS. No such individual has been contracted to deal with the public for and on behalf of the Scheme.”
“Management therefore wishes to strongly advise all National Service Personnel and the public to ignore the false information being circulated, and any other similar falsehoods, and to treat them with the contempt that they deserve,” it stated.
The NSS has referred the matter to the security agencies to identify and apprehend the perpetrator to save innocent service personnel from being duped.
“Finally, Management wishes to advise all national service personnel and the public to directly contact any of the Scheme’s Regional or District Secretariats, or the headquarters to have their grievances addressed,” it added.
