NNPC Limited recently issued a public notice to address rampant fake recruitment scams targeting Nigerians. On March 21, 2025, the company stated via X;
“Public Notice: Recruitment Disclaimer. The general public is hereby informed that NNPC Limited is not recruiting. Official recruitment announcements will only be made through our website and verified social media platforms.

This disclaimer aligns with NNPC’s Transparency, Accountability, and Performance Excellence (TAPE) agenda, as it combats misinformation following similar scams debunked by Africa Check in April 2024. As Nigeria’s state-owned oil company, transformed into a limited liability entity in 2022 under the Petroleum Industry Act, NNPC emphasizes merit-based hiring amid its ranking as one of Nigeria’s top workplaces in 2023, per LinkedIn.
