The Police Service Commission (PSC) is said to be under intense pressure to jettison the Federal Character principle in the ongoing recruitment of 10,000 police officers and men. New Telegraph gathered from highly placed sources that some members of the House of Representatives are mounting pressure on the Commission, to carry out the exercise on “local government by local government basis.”One of the sources, who spoke in confidence with New Telegraph, said the Commission has decided to stick to relevant provisions of theConstitution and the federal character principle, which provides that appointments and recruitment of any nature in the country, shall be equitably distributed; on state-bystate basis.Section 14 (3) of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republicof Nigeria (as amended) provides that: “The composition of the Government of the Federation or any of its agencies and the conductof its affairs shall be carried out in such a manner as to reflect the federal character of Nigeria and the need to promote national unity, and also to command national loyalty, thereby ensuring that there shall be no predominance of persons from afew states or from a few ethnic or other sectional groups in that Government or in any of its agencies.”New Telegraph learnt that the Commission’s position was informed by the aforementioned provisions, and other extant laws. It was gathered that owing to pressure, the PSC Chairman, Sir Mike Okiro, and his Commissioners have since relocated to one of the North-West states, to conclude the recruitment exercise. According to the source, Okiro and the Chairman, Senate Committee on Police Affairs,Abu Ibrahim, will meet President Muhammadu Buhari this week.The essence of the meeting, according to the source, is to feel the pulse of the President on the matter. “Some House of Representatives’ members are insisting that the recruitment should be on local government basis, but the Commission insists on following the federal character principle.“In fact, the Commission is now meeting outside Abuja, to avoid pressure, as it concludes work on the exercise. “Until there is a counter order or directive from the Presidency, the Commission will stick to the stateby- state arrangement, which complies with relevant laws,” he said.On the planned visit to the president, the source noted: “The essence of the visit, is to bring the issue before Mr. President, to know his position, even though initial feelers had suggested that the president stood by the law. “This is very important, because recruitmentexercise is a very sensitive matter.” Buhari had, last year, directed the PSC to recruit 10,000 policemen, to boost the manpower needs of the Nigeria Police.

Got this info last week about the PSC chairman relocating from abuja for the final shortlisting, but I never took it serious. The source told me that they left Abuja on tuesday.He also said that the list will be out this week.

They shouldnt use state by state format. For instance how can state like bayelsa with 8 lga have same number of candidate with delta (25 lga) that have more than 3x lga of bayelsa state. For this i demand for more creation of state for delta/edo. As at 1963 Nigeria have 4 regions. Now among those regions is only defunt midwestern region that have 2 state formed from it (delta/edo) whereby other regions have gotten 6 and above state. I think this an injustice. We demand for more state for delta/edo atleast 2 in each of the state

They are likely to use state by state because it's quoted in the Constitution. Besides, it's a very sensitive matter. If they are not careful they maybe sued to court for breaching the Constitution

So I've they gone back to Abj?

Finally I think this PSC are more organized than others... they're taking their time to make things right. Not like others e.g immigration, by now most of us would've been dead as a result of stampede, God forbid sha.

Don't u know if they use local govt, the north will have 60% of the jobs while the west, south nd east shares the remaining.


But if its by state, it would be shared evenly...

Rogger.....i dont tink dey would released d list dis week cuz den nevr settle tinx up"""so ur information iz somehow.

The recruitment of 10,000 personnel into the police force has been suspended over alleged irregularity, reliable sources told Daily Trust.
The recruitment was already underway when it was discovered that the criteria set for the exercise had been jettisoned.




The Police Service Commission which is coordinating the recruitment put it on hold based on an order from the Senate Police Committee.
The committee gave the suspension order in a letter it wrote to the commission on Thursday, sources said.
Sources said the letter was also copied to President Muhammadu Buhari to draw his attention to the situation.
The president gave the order for the recruitment of 10,000 policemen over a year ago. But the exercise ran into a number of problems over the past year.
It took a series of meetings by the Senate Committee, the Police Commission and the Force Headquarters to get past the problems.
The recruitment finally took off in August but soon after, other hitches developed.
The stakeholders had agreed that the recruitment would be based on local government areas.
But sources said trouble began when the commission decided to base the exercise on equal number per state, citing orders from above.
Now, other stakeholders are demanding that the commission restrict itself to the recruitment of cadet ASPs, which is its statutory responsibility.
The said Force Headquarters should handle the enlistment of those on inspectorate cadre and below.
But when contacted yesterday, the spokesman of the Police Service Commission (PSC) Ikechukwu Ani, said the recruitment exercise had not been suspended.
He added that the exercise was still on, explaining that the officials of the commission just finished a field exercise on the recruitment process.
He also noted that the commission had been partnering with the police on the recruitment into both the constable and senior officers cadre.
They shortlisted 110, 469 applicants for police recruitment aptitude tests across the country, he said.
The Chairman of the Commission, Mike Okiro, at a recent press conference in Abuja, said applicants to write the exams included Cadet ASPs, 22,454, comprising 10,290 general duties and 12,164 specialists.

The Commission has decided to go ahead with the recruitment despite the instruction from the Senate. The Commission is under the Presidency not the senate .the Senate have sinister motives concerning the recruitment. The President will probably stand with the Commission on this matter.

evening everyone.
I have been following the trend for quite a while. And am not surprise with the amount of rumuor, half truth, gossip and grapevine going on. I personally won't blame anyone for circulating adulterated informations. When you don't know what to buy; people can sell you anything. bellow are the fact I have gathered. they are not necessary all 100%, but it will cure you anxiety and correct your pulse.
1: PSC have move to Jigawa...this is certain, with pressure mountain like acid rain, the PSC have like a crawling child move to Jigawa to conclude the recruitment. 99.9% correct!
2: Next Phase might not be medical; contrary to report of next phase being medical; if the NPF want everyone enlisted having medical; the will simply used the next 6 months; medical will be in camp. 60% certain.
3: recruitment has not been cancel, suspended or adjoined; now for those of you that are having unusually pulse about the health of the recruitment; yes we were suppose to be in camp in July, yes it taking time......malaria, fever....but never cancer! there were hitches. plus the APC government have had a lot of bad blood,Now just like the ministerial list, the government want to take there time. now I don't dont how transparent it will be. not everyone that has God father will get, and not all that don't know Okiro will be abandon. 100%.
4; now for those feeding people with cramps and craps about an increase in slot; it is a lie!!!!!!!!! lie!!!!!!!!! increase......will keep you posted tomorrow on more! I am the observer
