Government has dismissed a Vehicle Inspection Department job offer notice circulating on social media, describing it as a scam.
Transport and Infrastructure Development ministry secretary Joy Makumbe urged the public to disregard the illegal notice.
"Our publicity department received the text and audio (of the fraudulent advertisement). They are posting alert messages to our social pages. Thank you for also being a concerned citizen," Makumbe said in response to questions from NewsDay.
A suspected scammer identified as Nyama has been advertising the posts saying he had been tasked by his “directors” to scout for graduate relatives for possible recruitment on the condition that they paid a “recruitment” fee, which is a bribe.
