Police Recruitment: No Date Fixed For Training – PSC

Police Service Commission (PSC) has said contrary to social media reports, no time has been fixed for the training of recently recruited constables.

The commission warned Nigerians to disregard multiple social media reports with scheduled dates for training for shortlisted candidates as it did not originate from the PSC.

The statement of PSC spokesperson Ikechukwu Ani reads, “The commission wishes to disown multiple social media reports on the 2022 recruitment exercise, especially on the imaginary scheduled date for training for shortlisted candidates.

“The commission also condemns the use of the name of its spokesman, Mr Ikechukwu Ani, on fictitious and phantom press statements calculated to deceive unsuspecting Nigerians on the status of the recruitment exercise.

“The commission wishes to clarify that it has at no time issued any statement on the review of the list of successful candidates or inviting successful candidates to check their applications on the newly launched portal.

The Commission has not advised candidates to print an updated invitation slip and proceed to the Police Training Colleges.

It has also not announced a date for the training programme, and the Monday, July 22nd, 2024 date bandied in the social media is just the imagination of the impostors.

“The commission wishes to advise candidates to be patient and await its official statement on the just concluded recruitment exercise.

It also warned these unrelenting impostors to stay clear of its activities, especially the recruitment exercise, and warns that anybody caught undermining the exercise will be dealt with by the law.”
