  • An online blog, NYSCINFO, on July 15, 2023 published multiple lists of candidates shortlisted for the National Population Commission’s (NPC) birth registration ad-hoc staff e-recruitment. The headline of the blogpost reads: ”NPC shortlisted candidates for Birth Registration- Check Here.” The report has found its way into various social media platforms as it has been forwarded multiple times on WhatsApp with the caption, ”BREAKING: NPC shortlisted candidates for birth registration ad-hoc staff recruitment.” Using Semrush – an online tool for assessing website’s visibility and analytics, the blog site is frequently visited and has over 9,000 subscribers. CLAIM NPC has released the names of shortlisted candidates for adhoc staff e-recruitment for birth registration exercise. BACKGROUND The ICIR reported in June 2023 that the United Nations Children Fund (UNICEF) and the National Population Commission (NPC) have partnered with the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) for the registration of 12.7 million births across 22 states including the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). While leading a team of officials of the organisation and NPC to sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the NYSC, UNICEF’s Chief of Child Protection, Dr. Ibrahim Sesay, said 850 corps members would be enlisted for the exercise and would work alongside the NPC officials. THE FINDINGS Findings by The FactCheckHub show that the claim is FALSE. The NPC spokesperson, Dr. Isiaka Yahaya, in a chat with The FactCheckHub debunked the claim, saying “it is fake news.” Also, a check on the website of the National Population Commission (NPC) shows that there is no such information published on their webpage. But a website which claimed to be a NPC recruitment portal archived here also published the list of all candidates who reportedly applied for the job. When the website (npcrecruitment.com.ng) was subjected to a check on WhoIs database, findings revealed that the website was registered by one Ibrahim Isah from Azare town in Bauchi State in March 2023 and not registered by any government agency. THE VERDICT The claim that the NPC has released names of shortlisted candidates for adhoc staff e-recruitment for the birth registration exercise is FALSE; the agency debunked the lists as fake.
