The PSC through the Police Recruitment Board is currently screening 416,270 Nigerian youths who have shown interest and applied to be considered for a career in the Nigeria Police Force (NPF).

PSC spokesperson, Ikechukwu Ani, said the candidates were being subjected to physical and academic credential screening, a prelude to an aptitude test and other processes, including medical examination.

He also said the Commission has, with the ongoing recruitment exercise, upgraded and automated the processes to ensure its credibility and create a measurable standard for final selection of successful candidates.

“Results/outcome of the screening exercise are uploaded real time to the Commission’s portal and monitored by the Situation Room set up and led by commission chairman, Dr. Solomon Arase,” Ani stated.

He further noted that out of the 136,177 candidates screened so far, 108,768 have been successfully uploaded, the difference being problems/challenges from a fluctuating network.

The PSC chairman, Solomon Arase, who is the national co-ordinator for the recruitment exercise, has expressed his satisfaction with the commitment of both the commission staff, the police officials and other members of the Police Recruitment Board.

He confirmed that there has been a commendable improvement in both screening and uploading rates and a complementary daily reportage of figures.

Dr. Arase congratulated the field work force and charged them “to maintain this momentum and strive for even greater achievements.”

He assured the candidates that they should not panic and be rest assured that they will all be screened before the end of the screening exercise, adding that he was aware of the heavy traffic at the screening centres.
