Federal Polytechnic Orogun has announced a large-scale recruitment drive for both academic and non-academic roles. The announcement, made through an official press statement, reflects the institution’s commitment to expanding its workforce and fostering local economic growth as it positions itself as a center of excellence in Nigeria’s educational sector.
The polytechnic is seeking qualified and motivated individuals to fill a wide range of vacancies across various disciplines. The academic positions span departments such as Computer Engineering, Mechatronics, Civil and Mechanical Engineering, Electrical/Electronics, Medical and Science Laboratory Technology, Library and Information Science, Computer Science, Statistics, Business Administration, Marketing, Public Administration, Mass Communication, Crime Management, Film & Television Studies, Hospitality and Tourism Management, Multimedia Technology, Agricultural Technology, and Music Technology.
Applicants for academic positions can apply as Assistant Lecturers, Lecturer III, Lecturer II, Lecturer I, Senior Lecturers, or Principal Lecturers, depending on qualifications, years of teaching and research experience, and publication record. Higher-level academic roles require evidence of multiple journal publications and documented research or industrial contributions.
Non-academic positions are also widely available across multiple cadres and specializations, including librarianship, administration, ICT, accounting, internal auditing, health services, architecture, surveying, civil service roles, engineering support, store management, and more. Applicants with qualifications ranging from secondary school certificates to postgraduate degrees are encouraged to apply, provided they meet the specific job requirements.
Online application forms have been made available for academic, non-academic, and junior staff categories. Interested candidates can apply through the following links:
All applicants must submit a detailed resume of no more than four pages, along with supporting documents such as educational certificates, NYSC discharge or exemption certificate, birth certificate or age declaration, and a valid government-issued ID (such as National ID, Driver’s License, or biometric page of international passport). The resume must also include essential personal information, contact details, professional and academic qualifications, publication records where applicable, employment history, computer skills, and referees.
Each applicant is required to provide the contact details of three referees, including valid email addresses. Automatic emails will be sent to the referees to submit confidential reports, and applicants are advised to inform their referees to check their inboxes and spam folders promptly.
The deadline for application submission is six weeks from the date of publication, and only shortlisted candidates will be contacted for interviews. A key requirement for successful candidates is a willingness to reside within the Polytechnic’s host community, reinforcing the institution’s focus on community development and integration.
The recruitment initiative, signed by Mrs. Christine Aluyi, fnim, anipr, Registrar and Secretary to the Governing Council, is part of the institution’s broader strategy to become a leading polytechnic in Nigeria. It is expected to draw wide national interest and provide a major platform for skilled Nigerians to contribute meaningfully to the educational and economic development of Delta State and beyond.

NYSC makes NERD clearance mandatory for corps members’ mobilisation
The National Youth Service Corps has warned prospective corps members that they will not be mobilised for national service without obtaining clearance from the National Electronic Registration Database (NERD).
The warning comes as the scheme continues preparations for the mobilisation of a fresh batch of prospective corps members, while also intensifying efforts to ensure their safety during orientation camp journeys.
In a public notice shared on its official X account on Monday, the NYSC declared that NERD clearance is now compulsory for all prospective corps members.
The scheme urged prospective corps members to complete the process early to avoid delays in mobilisation.
It also cautioned that failure to obtain the clearance could delay mobilisation into the national service programme.
“This is to inform PCMs (Prospective Corps Members) that without NERD clearance, no NYSC. Get your NERD clearance early. Avoid delays in your mobilisation.”
Reiterating the mandatory nature of the requirement, the NYSC stated, “NERD clearance is compulsory for all PCMs. No NERD clearance, No NYSC!!!”
Although the scheme did not provide additional details about the clearance process in the notice, the directive signals a stricter verification regime as preparations continue for the next orientation exercise.
The latest advisory comes barely hours after the NYSC announced the mobilisation of another batch of prospective corps members for the 2026 Batch ‘B’ service year, urging institutions and eligible graduates to complete all necessary documentation ahead of the orientation exercise.
It also follows another recent safety advisory by the scheme in which prospective corps members were warned against travelling at night to orientation camps.
The NYSC advised them to break their journeys whenever necessary and lodge in safe locations or designated military and security formations where available, rather than risk travelling after dark.
The renewed advisories reflect the scheme’s efforts to improve both the integrity of its mobilisation process and the safety of prospective corps members, amid growing security concerns on Nigerian highways.
With mobilisation activities gathering pace, prospective corps members are expected to complete all required registration and verification procedures, including the newly emphasised NERD clearance, before reporting for orientation camp.

“Furthermore, the meeting is expected to, in particular, formally set the tone for the 2026/2027 admission exercise while impressing it on attendees the need to adhere strictly to stipulated guidelines.
