Police begins recruitment of 10,000 officers today

The recruitment of 10, 000 policemen by the Police Service Commission begins nationwide today (Friday).

President Muhammadu Buhari had last year at the National Security Summit in Abuja directed the recruitment of 10,000 Nigerians into the Force to address the obvious shortfall in the manpower needs of the police.

Speaking on the recruitment exercise on Thursday in Abuja, the PSC Chairman, Mike Okiro warned the commission workers who would be involved in the screening of candidates to avoid any act that may compromise the integrity of the exercise.
