The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) of Nigeria has alerted the public about a fraudulent website circulating online that falsely claims to be recruiting ad hoc staff for the 2026 elections. This warning was issued in a public notice on Saturday, where INEC emphasized that the website is not affiliated with the commission and is misleading.
