The Nasarawa State Universal Basic Education Board, (NSUBEB) Thursday warned applicants for teaching appointments on the activities of employment racketeers in the state.
This was contained in a statement signed by the public relations officer of the board, (PRO) Gana Lawal Ahmed, issued to journalists in Lafia.
He said some dubious persons were extorting money from job seekers in the name of the board .
The statement said that the board had not issued any statement on recruitment of teachers, urging applicants to avoid becoming victims, saying “As such to be forewarned is to be forearmed.
“Some dubious characters at the LGEA are collecting money from applicants. The board would come down swiftly on those found doing so.
He said that the general public would be notified through the appropriate means when the Board commences the exercise.
“There are fraudsters swindling those seeking teaching appointments in the state, after the announcement of the ongoing screening of secondary school teachers by the Ministry of Education, he warned.
