In recent days, there have been media reports that the Ondo state Teaching Service Commission (TESCOM), has announced recruitment exercise for new teachers into the state workforce.
The truth is that the commission never made such announcement. It was some online media owners that did to drive traffic to their websites.
Independent findings by The Precision NG, revealed that there is a particularly website that has been sharing the fake information.
The URL of the site ends with dot org dot ng.
Our findings however show that the Ondo State Government official website, where it advertises job into its civil service is www.ondostate.gov.ng.
Corroborating the fake news, Tolu Adeyemi, Permanent Secretary, Teaching Service Commission in the State, in a statement issued at the weekend, urged members of the public to disregard the rumour as it is totally false.
“There is no recruitment exercise at the moment. The Commission has also not authorised anyone to act on its behalf in that regard,” he said.
