The Nigeria Police Force has alleged that the recently released names of successful candidates in the ongoing 2022/23 Police Constables Recruitment Exercise were marred with irregularities and corruption.
Recall 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.
In a statement made on Saturday, the Force Public Relations Officer, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, confirmed the alleged corruption and irregularities.
According to the statement, upon scrutiny of the list released on the Police Service Commission (PSC) portal, the security agency 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.
