The Nigerian Air Force, NAF says it’s attention has been drawn to a fraudulent online notification of admission into National Diploma/Higher National Diploma (ND/HND) Nursing Programmes for the 2023/2024 Academic Session at NAF School of Medical Sciences and Aviation Medicine (NAFSMSAM), Kaduna.
In a statement, the Director of Public Relations and Information, NAF Air Commodore Ayodele Famiyiwa said that “the advert signed by an impostor, Air Commodore Anike Obinna, is asking unsuspecting members of the public to pay a non-refundable fee of N15,000.00 for the purchase of admission form”.
Illicit act
According to him, the fraudster also provided two fake telephone numbers 07047290540 and 09169461866 for enquiries in an effort to legitimize the illicit act.
He said that “the NAF wishes to inform the public that it has nothing to do with the person or claims by the fraudster”.
He said that “the Service is yet to commence admission process into ND/HND programmes at NAFSMSAM and has not authorised any agent or third party to advertise or collect money on its behalf for such things”.
According to him, admission into ND/HND Nursing programmes is conducted by the NAF College of Nursing Sciences through the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB).
He noted that Information regarding admission into ND/HND programmes at NAFCONS will be communicated to the general public in due course through the College official website www.nafcons.edu.ng.
Therefore, members of the public are advised to disregard the said advert currently being circulated on social media platforms as anyone involved does so at his/her risk.
