The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) wishes to bring to the

notice of the public about a scamming account who are claiming to be LinkedIn, and office of the Executive Vice Chairman (EVC), Prof. Umar Garba Danbatta.

This account was created by some individuals with the aim defrauding members of the public and users of social media who might thought that such an account belongs to the EVC of NCC.
