The state Government of Osun wishes to inform the general public that there is no recruitment into the state civil service as at present.
This denial came on the heel of the rumoured recruitment by the state government into the civil service, which has been generating controversies within and outside the state.
The state government is aware that a sum of N2000 is being paid by unsuspecting members of the public to a certain account for the purpose of getting a recruitment form.
As at today, there is no recruitment in the state of Osun; and members of the public are advised not to pay any amount to anybody on the guise of paying Osun civil service recruitment form.
It is unwise and unexpected of a government that is struggling to pay full salary to its existing workers to engage in an unproductive recruitment exercise.
Instead of recruiting new workers, the government would continue to concentrate on the capacity building programmes by training and retraining of the active workers to make them efficient in their various areas.
This will add value to both the workers and the government and would no doubt give us the required productive civil service needed to drive the development of the state.
We urge members of the public to disregard the rumoured recruitment exercise, so that they will not fall victim of scam.
We urge the security agencies in the state to also investigate, arrest and prosecute all the job racketeers
