Recent recruitment marred by corruption, list flooded with non-applicants – Police
The Nigeria Police Force has raised that alarm about the irregularities and alleged corruption in the recently released names of successful candidates in the ongoing 2022/23 Police Constables Recruitment Exercise.
The development was contained in a statement issued and made available to DAILY POST on Saturday by the Force Public Relations Officer, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi.
According to the statement, upon careful scrutiny of the list released on the Police Service Commission (PSC) portal, it was discovered that Nigerians who never applied, candidates who failed the Computer Based Test, and those screened out due to medical reasons made it to the final list.
News Telly recalls that the PSC had on June 4 announced the approval and release of a list of 10,000 successful applicants for recruitment into the constable and specialist cadres.
However, the Inspector General of Police issued a letter of objection to the list on June 10 addressed to the Chairman of the Commission, citing the discovered irregularities.
