Police recruitment: PSC speaks on candidates ‘writing exam in Arabic

Published on May 30, 2018 By Seun Opejobi

The Police Service Commission, PSC, has reacted to rumour that candidates participating in ongoing recruitment into the force wrote examination in Arabic.


Outgoing PSC Chairman, Mike Okiro insisted that the assessment was only based on aptitude and language test under the heading, “English Language test for 45 minutes”.

He explained, in a statement, that JAMB customized platform contained skeletons of other 22 subjects offered by the board.


The statement, which was signed by Okiro, read, “The instructions were that candidates should answer the questions in that section alone.

“On completion of the 45 minutes test, any candidates who rolled down would come across subjects listed in alphabetical order of the 23 subjects with the first 3 being Agriculture, Arabic and Arts.”

He dismissed as false the claim that “180 questions (instead of 60) were to be answered in English, Agriculture, Arabic and Arts in 45 minutes!!!


“The only Nexus among the three is letter ‘A’. The Nigeria Police Force does not require Agriculture, Arabic or Arts.



“No candidate was ever required to answer questions or assessed on any of the three subjects as shown by the results already released,” the PSC boss asserted.

They said the subjects are listed in alphabetical order, why don't you talk about Arts and Agriculture that are there too?

Do you understand the content of what you read? Maybe you should read again or get someone to explain it to you.

How come computer base test, you can scroll to another questions... something is fishing....... I joined my voice with others that they need to cancel the test and reorganize another one. Chikena!!!

Nigerians just love reacting to lies as long as it suits their ethnic/religious hate

The Christians don't hate Muslims,its all politics pmb is their perceived enemy,when jej was busy dolling out dollars for those supposed men of god ,there was nothing like christianization, what about the jet with 9m that was owned by the bling bling pastor,the pastors that were taken to Jerusalem for special prayers for jej's re_election,I can go on and on but I pity this indomie generation they only think with their anus, they don't ask questions, its all about my pastor says, my tribe, he is from my village..bunch of lazy yoots.

Come and explain Arabic inscription on naira notes and army flag

WHICH ONE BE ARABIC EXAM AGAIN??

They use Arabic to teach Northerners ( i mean 0.5%) of them that were force to go school..e.g TRANSMISSION)

So Southern will definitely fail the Arabic which will have Highest cut of mark...

There 99.5% will be Northerners ( Muhammed, idris, bello, buhari, baba etc) while south west might be lucky and get 0.2% and south east and south South will be 0.3


BUHARI is the best president after Abacha...

Yes

Nigerians most time don't read same way people comment on nairaland out of emotions without reading the thread or topic

Instruction on the exam page said write only English under 45 mins

Do you have comprehension problem? Or you commented without reading the story?

Why is he even bothering to explain?

This shambolic pastors and their political party CAN would never desist from creating religious controversy out of thin air.

Anything Islam makes them froth like rabid dogs.

It's all in a bid to divert their tithe-paying sheeple from realizing they're being fleeced.

From the above information, it is clear where the confusion is from. Candidates who sat for the exams and not Computer Literate must be behind this. If you are not Computer literate, make a commitment today to enroll for training.

next time try to read a post before rushing to comment nonsense.

Ok o.

Good. Nigeria is a very sensitive country so dont do thing that can easily be miscontrued.

Wow. There's no hope for Nigeria. See supposed future leaders who can't even read a short article before jumping into silly conclusions.

agric, Arabic for police exam they for include philosophy rather than Arabic or agric - geography

People have been paying tithe before your mohammed got his so called revelation of islam so shut up. I hope you say this load of bs when muric comes to spout nonsense.

Being fleeced is way better than strapping themselves unto a bomb in hopes of 72 virgins whose virginity would be renewed everyday.

Honestly, the whole Arabic stuff was just a big distraction and false information from those who wrote the exam. Mischief makers I must say. Hope this explanation settles things..

okay

So, what about the cross in front of most hospital logos? We don't have that in hospitals abroad, not in UK, not in most parts of Europe? Ignorance is the problem of most religious bigots.

I think religion is the major impediment to our growth as a Country. I have never seen a more religiously volatile nation than Nigeria. Religious bigots are waiting for the slightest opportunity before they start displaying their hatred for the perceived rival religion.

we mumu for this country.

The country weak me.
