The attention of the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC, has been drawn to series of fraudulent emails and messages being sent to applicants of the Postgraduate Foreign Scholarship Programme.
The mailing address (nddcregistry@gmail.com), claiming to be the Commission’s ‘Board Registry,’ invites unsuspecting members of the public to a fake document verification and authentication exercise scheduled for May 19th—21st, 2025, at 30 Bishop Oluwole Street, Victoria Island, Lagos.
We want to clarify that the NDDC is not associated with this fraudulent selection process and exercise. All official communications concerning the scholarship programme will only be through the official NDDC portal (www.scholarship.nddc.gov.ng).
Applicants are strongly advised to disregard any unsolicited messages requesting money, an invitation, sensitive information, or offering scholarship placement outside of the official NDDC processes. Anyone who receives such messages is encouraged to report them immediately to the appropriate authorities, as your safety and privacy are our priority.
We urge those with legitimate inquiries about the scholarship programme to contact us through our official channels. We also encourage beneficiaries of our programmes to verify facts on the NDDC’s official website: [www.nddc.gov.ng].
