The Nigerian Airspace Management Agency (NAMA) has alerted members of the public to fraudulent recruitment and appointment letters being issued by individuals impersonating the agency.

NAMA, in a statement signed by its Director of Public Affairs and Consumer Protection, Dr. Abdullahi Musa, said the development was a serious concern, noting that the fraudulent schemes were designed to exploit unsuspecting job seekers and undermine the agency’s corporate identity.

The agency stressed that it is not currently conducting any recruitment exercise, warning that anyone or any organisation claiming to recruit, facilitate employment or issue appointment letters on its behalf is acting without its knowledge or authorisation.

NAMA urged members of the public to exercise caution and avoid making payments, submitting sensitive personal information or engaging in transactions with individuals claiming to offer employment opportunities with the agency.

It advised members of the public to independently verify any recruitment notice, employment communication or appointment letter purportedly issued by NAMA through its recognised official channels before taking any action.

The agency also warned job seekers to disregard unofficial correspondence, social media messages and representations by unauthorised intermediaries.

“NAMA does not authorise individuals or third parties to solicit money or other consideration in exchange for employment”, the agency stated.

It urged anyone who encounters suspected cases of impersonation or fraudulent representation to report them to the appropriate authorities.

NAMA further disclaimed responsibility for any financial losses or other consequences arising from dealings with fraudsters or unauthorised persons falsely claiming to represent the agency.

The agency reaffirmed its commitment to transparency, institutional integrity and protecting members of the public from fraudulent activities.
