THE Director of Information, Patricia Deworitshe, sent out a succinct statement on Saturday, April 27, warning against lying and making it clear that the Ministry does not plan to distribute such money.


The Ministry also denied reports that it was starting open enrollment in its hospitals and advised the public to avoid the area and be on the lookout for con artists.


Meanwhile, the Ministry reiterated its position, claiming that such statements are untrue and have not been approved by the Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare, in reaction to the online publication that suggested the distribution of N15,000 as Instant Relief Funds.


Also, the Ministry made it clear that it has not started hiring at any of its hospitals around the country.


Deworitshe clarified that, in contrast to internet speculations, public announcements detailing the nature of job placements were made through two national daily.


According to the statement, “The Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare wishes to inform the general public that the Ministry is not currently in the process of recruiting general staff for the hospitals.


“For the avoidance of doubt, the Ministry placed an advertisement in the Daily Trust and Punch Newspapers of 18th April 2024, for the recruitment of Chief Medical Directors and Directors of Administration in some of the Federal Tertiary Hospitals only.


“The public is to note that the recruitment exercise is not for the Federal Ministry of Health as this falls under the purview of the Federal Civil Service Commission.”
