The Ogun State government has warned members of the public to be wary of falling victims to unscrupulous individuals behind the fake sale of forms into Schools of Nursing and Midwifery, being advertised on the social media, distancing itself from the act.
The government, in a press statement by the state Commissioner for Health, Dr. Tomi Coker, stated that it had concluded all admission processes for the 2022/2023 session and successful candidates had since settled down for their programmes.
Coker said that the issue of late forms being circulated on the social media space is the handiwork of some fraudsters, affirming that whoever deals with them does so at his or her own risk.
He said, “We have since concluded the admission process into our Colleges of Nursing Sciences, which offer Basic Nursing and Midwifery programmes. Good enough, the successful candidates for the 2022/2023 session have settled down in their various classes.
“The general public should note that fraudsters are behind this late form being advertised on social media. The government will not be responsible in any way to whoever falls victims.”
The commissioner noted that official government platforms are always available to pass information to the general public and a visit to the Ogun State Ministry of Health in Abeokuta to confirm and verify information would also do a lot of good to parents and prospective students.
