PSC suspends recruitment of constables after NPF’s protest

The Police Service Commission (PSC) says it has suspended its 2022 recruitment of constables into the Nigeria Police Force (NPF). 

In a statement on Tuesday by Ikechukwu Ani, head of press and public relations, the PSC said the suspension of the recruitment exercise was to resolve all contentious issues with the NPF.

The police service commission said the decision was in the best interest of the nation.

TheCable had reported how the NPF dismissed an advertisement by the PSC calling for applicants to apply as constables in the force.

Muyiwa Adejobi, the force spokesperson, had asked Nigerians to disregard the PSC’s call for recruitment.

“The police similarly states unequivocally that the advert has no connection with the Nigeria Police Force nor is it in tandem with the Police recruitment process, and should be disregarded in all its entirety,” Adejobi said.

“The website to which the publication refers the intending candidates to –http://www.recruitment.psc.gov.ng — is not associated with the Nigeria Police Force.”
