Polytechnic Students Launch Campaign to Expose Russian ‘Alabuga Start’ Fake Jobs
The Student Union Government at Abraham Adesanya Polytechnic in Ijebu Igbo has kicked off a awareness drive to warn female students about the Russian-linked Alabuga Start Program. Promises of free flights, high salaries and no qualifications required have already lured many young women into dangerous conditions. Student leaders say the scheme offers vocational training and hospitality roles on social media, but victims end up in a drone factory in Tatarstan, building weapons for a war they know nothing about. The campaign team is going hall to hall, holding face-to-face talks and distributing flyers to ensure every student hears the warning. Male students are urged to support the effort by asking questions when friends mention foreign job offers. The union also took the message to local radio, speaking in English and Yoruba to reach communities beyond campus. “If it sounds too easy to be true, it probably is,” they remind everyone. The sensitization effort continues across the polytechnic, with organisers determined that no student falls victim to this modern trafficking scheme.
