The National Examinations Council (NECO) has disowned a fake Facebook account opened in the name of the Registrar/Chief Executive, Prof. Dantani Wushishi.
It warned that the fake account is aimed at defrauding unsuspecting members of the public.
The warning was conveyed through a statement made available to newsmen in Abuja on Sunday by the Council’s acting Director, Information and Public Relations, Mr Azeez Sani.
“The Council wishes to draw the attention of the public to the existence of this fake Facebook account in order to avoid being swindled by the fraudsters,” the statement said.
The statement also revealed that security agents have been notified to take appropriate action against the fraudsters.
