Mba further stated that specific guidelines for each state would be announced by the Police Public Relations Officers in the 36 state commands and the FCT.
The police spokesman also noted that the screening and other aspects of the recruitment would be carried out in strict compliance with the COVID-19 prevention protocols.
He, therefore, directed all applicants to come with the printout of application submission confirmation page and a duly completed guarantor’s form.
Mba also advised the applicants to be careful of online imposters, scammers, and other criminal elements who might want to take advantage of the recruitment process to dupe innocent candidates.
He said anyone found wanting will be arrested and prosecuted.
Mba also noted that any candidate who failed to present the requirements will not be considered for the screening.
