The Niger Delta Development Commission has raised the alarm over fraudulent use of its name and logo by scammers using dubious websites and social media accounts to defraud members of the public.
Its Director, Corporate Affairs, Abosede Ibitoye, in a statement on Sunday, informed stakeholders and those who wanted to benefit from its programmes that the NDDC was not in any way involved in a so-called “N100,000 Household Grant to Support SMEs by Granting Financial Assistance to all Nigerian Citizens and Businesses.”
Ibitoye also noted that the fraudulent Household Grant Application 2023, tagged Niger Delta Development Commission Support Fund is a scam.
The statement read in part, “The perpetrators of this criminal act have set up a website inviting ‘interested individuals and businesses to apply through an application form portal https://bit.ly/nddc-sme-grant 2023. We urge everyone to be wary to avoid falling victim to this fraudulent activity by some dubious individuals who impersonate the NDDC.”
