Police To Recruit 30,000 Out Of Over 400,000 Applicants

No fewer than 30,000 youths will be recruited to join the Nigeria Police Force in the ongoing recruitment exercise.

A statement by the Chairman of the Police Service Commission, Solomon Arase, confirmed this today, Sunday.

Arase, a former Inspector General of Police, said over 400,000 Nigerians had applied for the police constable job after six weeks of receiving applications.

According to the statement on the commission’s website, the recruitment exercise starts on Monday, January 8, throughout the federation, with physical and credentials screening of successful applicants.

The statement quoted Arase as admonishing staff of the commission at a pre-deployment briefing over the weekend that “this is not merely a recruitment exercise; rather, it is a saga – an epic tale where your actions will reverberate through time, each decision, each interaction becomes a paragraph in this narrative, shaping the perception of our Commission and the legacy we leave behind.”

Arase charged the staff to uphold the torch of professionalism and integrity and embrace this responsibility with the knowledge that their actions will resonate beyond the confines of the present.
