Information is making rounds that the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) does not recruit publicly, but this is not true. The NDDC recruitment exercise 2024 is now open, and the application form is available. The Commission invites interested and qualified Nigerians to apply for various positions, including Managing Director, Executive Director (operations), Assistant Director, and other roles in the Niger Delta regions of the country. This recruitment is an opportunity for graduates eager to contribute to the development of the Niger Delta region.
NDDC Recruitment 2024
Yes, NDDC recruits new people. Apart from its trademark empowerment programs, the Commission also employs qualified candidates to fill vacant positions. Whenever the NDDC recruitment form is released, it is published on the official NDDC website and its social media. SCAF.org.ng also picks up this update to make sure eligible candidates are duly informed. This article is an update to help ensure that applicants are well-informed and do not miss the application deadlines.
Please take note that this exercise is different from one of NDDC’s empowerment schemes, for example, the Youth Internship Scheme reported by Work and School Africa. This is purely a recruitment of staff members into the Commission.
