Not even a brief summary of the available jobs and locations. Just a link to get Nairalanders to your page.

Good job to grab only if you can!

No point applying if you can't speak more than one foreign Language.

Don't you know know have to get to ECOWAS website to register?

I trust fraudsters to run with this..

If you are indeed recruiting, you shoukd be able to state specifically the positions people can apply for..

This is rúbbish as far as I'm concerned

I was trying to encourage you to do better if you want the traffic, but my bad, I see you've got it all figured out. ✌🏿

I noticed that nationals from Niger republic, Mali and Bukina Faso were excluded from the advertisement.

They were not offered the opportunity to participate in the application process.

Most likely because these countries left the ECOWAS body due to political issues with the leaders of ECOWAS spearheaded by Nigeria the leading country behind ECOWAS.

Everybody show rather use the age limit as a yardstick rather than job advert.
Checkout you age and see if you're still lagging.
