In an official statement released on Thursday in Port Harcourt, the Acting Head of the Rivers State Civil Service, Inyingi Brown, described the circulating claims as false and deceptive. The fake announcement, which stated that an application portal would open at midnight on Sunday, April 13, 2025, was falsely linked to the Secretary to the State Government, Prof. Ibibia Worika.
The statement stressed that any legitimate information regarding civil service recruitment would be formally issued by the Rivers State Civil Service Commission through authorized channels—not via unverified social media posts.
“We urge the people of Rivers State and the general public to disregard the fraudulent announcement. Accurate details will be released by the Rivers State Civil Service Commission at the appropriate time,” the statement read.
Brown reaffirmed that recruitment into the state civil service follows a well-defined, transparent process and assured the public that any updates would be officially communicated by the responsible government agencies.
The fake report surfaced shortly after Ibas made new appointments in the state.
