The attention of the Registrar of the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN) has been drawn to fraudulent activities by certain unscrupulous individuals falsely claiming to represent MDCN. These persons are deceiving unsuspecting members of the public with information about a non-existent scholarship scheme allegedly organised by the MDCN.

The Council wishes to state that no such scholarship scheme exists. Consequently, members of the public and individuals whose names were listed and have been circulated as beneficiaries are strongly advised to disregard this false information in its entirety.

Please note that those behind this scam are engaging in criminal activities and the matter has been reported to relevant law enforcement agencies for appropriate action.

Members of the public and stakeholders are urged to remain vigilant.

Important Notice:

  1. Any payments to the MDCN are made only through the REMITA platform. The Council does not accept payments for any service via personal or individual bank accounts.
  2. Any official announcement or publication not posted on the MDCN website should be regarded as unauthorised and invalid.

Signed,
Management
Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria
