Members of the public, particularly stakeholders of the Presidential Amnesty Programme are hereby cautioned to be mindful of an online statement calling on shortlisted persons for scholarship to proceed for clearance
The alleged statement credited to the PAP office and purportedly issued by the SA Media, is the handiwork of scammers and the PAP therefore distances itself from the WhatsApp post.
The public is therefore advised to disregard the statement as the PAP had consistently cautioned that information on scholarship and training programmes would be deployed on its official website and not through a WhatsApp number.
For the avoidance of doubt, the PAP would not also ask anyone to make monetary payments for any of its formal and informal training programmes.
