NSCDC Warns Personnel Against Fake 2026 Promotion Notice

By Isiaka Mustapha, Editor-in-Chief, People’s Security Monitor

The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has warned its personnel against a fraudulent notice circulating on social media, falsely requesting officers to submit their personal and service details for the 2026 Senior Promotion Exercise.In an official disclaimer dated November 9, 2026, the Corps said the fake notice instructed personnel to forward their full names, service numbers and present ranks to a WhatsApp number, 08031306693.

The management categorically dissociated the Corps from the notice, stressing that neither the NSCDC nor its National Public Relations Office issued such a directive.It urged officers and men to disregard the fraudulent message and remain vigilant against individuals seeking to exploit the promotion exercise to obtain sensitive service information.The Corps clarified that all matters relating to promotions originate exclusively from the Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB) and are communicated through established administrative channels of the Ministry of Interior and the Corps.

Personnel were also advised to exercise caution when responding to unsolicited messages requesting their official records or personal information.The management called on relevant stakeholders to give the disclaimer wide publicity to prevent unsuspecting personnel from falling victim to fraudsters.
