PSC Confirms Due Process in Recruitment of 10,000 Constables

The Police Service Commission (PSC) has confirmed on Friday that the recruitment of 10,000 constables followed due process, with all candidates fully certified fit for the job.

In a statement, Ikechukwu Ani, the Head of Press and Public Relations, said the PSC has monitored developments since releasing the list of successful candidates for recruitment into the Nigeria Police Force.

“The recruitment process was thorough, and all candidates were appropriately vetted and certified fit for the job,” Ani stated, addressing any concerns about the integrity of the recruitment exercise.

According to the statement, ”the Commission is disturbed at the flagrant abuse of ethics, the Constitution and valid judgment of the apex court of the land which gave it power to recruit eligible candidates into the force.

“It is important to state that due process was meticulously followed throughout the exercise and the Commission wishes to assert its prerogative to exercise full control over recruitments into the Nigeria Police Force.

“It is unfortunate that the Police has attributed its obvious failure to protect lives and properties, and safeguard our nation from banditry and terrorism to bad recruitment, ” It said.
