The Senate has demanded that the recruitment of
10,000 personnel into the Nigeria Police Force,
NPF, be suspended.
The Senate, it was gathered, cited irregularity in the
criteria set for the exercise.
Senate Committee on Police gave the suspension
order in a letter it wrote to the Police Service
Commission, PSC, last week and also forwarded to
President Muhammadu Buhari.
After initial hiccups, the recruitment, which finally
took off in August, was discovered to be lopsided.
Earlier, stakeholders had agreed that the
recruitment would be based on local government
areas, Daily Trust reports.
But the commission allegedly decided to base the
exercise on equal number per state, claiming
orders from above.
Protests letters were sent to the Senate, with
stakeholders demanding that the commission
restricts itself to the recruitment of cadet ASPs, its
statutory responsibility, while Force Headquarters
handles the enlistment of those on inspectorate
cadre and below.
Already, the presidency has reportedly directed the
PSC Chairman, Mike Okiro, to explain the flaw
pointed out by the red chamber.
Reacting, PSC spokesman, Ikechukwu Ani, said the
recruitment exercise had not been suspended.
Checks and recent events counter his position as
there had been no major news on the recruitment
since applicants wrote their aptitude tests late
August.
An applicant of Akwa Ibom origin, who wrote the
test, confirmed to DAILY POST that neither he nor
those he exchanged contact with have been
contacted.
“They told us they will invite us for the next stage,
but nothing yet. Last week, I called some guys I
met at the venue and they too said they have not
received any update,” he disclosed.

Ok we will. Not only to call you, we will drive you down when camp opens. We care

Hmmmm....they want to share d slot ooo

Nothing ever goes straight in this administration, for your info no hope for the common man, because the President has his own list, his wife has her own list the V.P , the senators , before it will get to the common man they must have exhausted all the slots

Who wan join police self?I will rather be a thief than join the Nigeria police,meanwhile the modafokas are suspending the exercise so as to pack in their candidates.

Can't they just get anything right in this administration

Hmmmm

Nawa for this country! If recruitment of just 10,000 personnel is giving them problem, then how will they handle the Npower 500,000 recruitment?

Corruption is rooted in DNA of this country. Tribalism, favouritism, "brotherlism, sectionalism, my poepelism and what have u?
May God help the poor masses in this country

David Mark will always take 90% of Benue Slot to Idoma Land as usual

As always expected.

patiently waiting o #ASP OLU

We see CHANGEs everyday...Buhari is really working...

Earlier, stakeholders had agreed that the
recruitment would be based on local government
areas, Daily Trust reports.

orders from above.

This was reported few days back.

Senate should please allow PSC to base it on State to ensure same number of officers per state. Local Government route will be so wrong. Imagine Bayelsa having 8 (if it is one-per-lg), Lagos having 20 while Kano having 44, Oyo having 33. By the time they will be through, we'll start shouting "Northernization of the Police Force"
My point is equity will be better achieved basing it on State. Every state has to be treated equally!

The process has been fair so far.
I have two guys who had even given up but suddenly got the emails for the last screening.

Make NASS go boil stone jor.

Hhhhhhmmm

No bi me talk am oh!!! "The three arms of government in Nigeria: ExecuTHIEVES, LegisLOOTERS, and JudiSHARING."

The change zombies voted for

Yeye

Buhari no go hear ooo.

:
:

except the recruitment won't be conducted by the police... you should expect plenty irregularity

Why can't each state have equal allocation of candidates, at least, for once?
Now the Senators want it as usual?
I don't care if the process is stopped all together, but I believe PSC has been doing great so far.
Now the Senators want to hijack the process.
They should be ignored

We all understand their plans

Who do mteeech 4 mopol?

B4 nko?

Hmm
Another inconclusive employment

Just the way they also messed up the immigration service recruitment?

red chamber, green or blue should hand off from that recruitment.

these people make a mockery of the pains and suffering Nigerians go through everyday. Many borrowed just go to attend this hoax of recruitment now all is suspended as if it didn't matter.
