The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), has warned applicants in its 2025 recruitment exercise to ignore a viral social media post claiming to list shortlisted candidates per state, describing it as fake and misleading.
In a statement on X, the Service clarified that the publication did not originate from any of its official communication channels.
“The Service wishes to categorically state that the publication did not originate from the Nigeria Customs Service or any of its authorised platforms,” it said, urging applicants to rely only on verified updates from its Recruitment Update Portal – https://updates.customs.gov.ng.
The NCS reaffirmed its commitment to a transparent, merit-based recruitment process, warning against attempts to undermine its credibility.
Reacting, former Kaduna Central Senator Shehu Sani condemned the fake list, describing it as an attempt to discredit the recruitment process and cause unnecessary tension among applicants.
