Adelani Adepegba, Abuja

The Police Service Commission has begun issuing letters of appointment to about 10,000 constables recruited into the Nigeria Police Force last year.

The exercise, which commenced last month, is to enable the enrolment of the recruits into the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System for the payment of their salaries and other entitlements by the Federal Government.

The enrolment began two weeks ago and would conclude in the next few days.

However, 925 persons will not get the appointment letters as their names were said to have been illegally added to the final list of successful candidates.

Sources told our correspondent on Wednesday that the PSC had weeded out the names of the affected candidates who were allegedly added to the list.

The commission had initiated the recruitment on its portal but the police took over the exercise, stating that it was their constitutional mandate to recruit the constables.

The PSC subsequently challenged the move at the Federal High Court in Abuja, but the presiding judge, Justice Inyang Ekwo, ruled in favour of the Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu.

The commission, however, appealed the ruling, which is expected to be determined this month.

Confirming the removal of 925 recruits from the final list, a senior official stated, “We discovered that Akwanga Local Government, which is in Nasarawa State was placed under Cross River State; Awe LGA also in Nasarawa, was also placed on the list of local governments in Cross River state.”

Meanwhile, the commission has failed to participate in the ongoing screening of a new batch of 10,000 constables which commenced from August 24 and to end on September 16, 2020.

When ed about the failure of the agency to monitor the screening, the PSC spokesman, Ikechukwu Ani, simply said, “We will carry out our oversight in due course.

PUNCH

We have to maintain Northernization of the zoo police force by removing names of infidels.

Make them go do Thanksgiving abeg, 500 of them for die within on year.

After months of training, you just get sidelined. E bad, e just bad.

It happens in every government recruitment in Nigeria.They will be looking for a mistake a recruit has made in his documents in other to disqualify him and be replaced with their own slots.And this evil is being carried out while training is about to be completed by the recruit.

Country hard ahswear, why will a sane person become a policeman in Nigeria

This shouldn't be a news to us, it's Nigeria and we are not new to it

So long it's a government institution, nothing can shock me anymore. That's the same corruption and quota system that makes them keep churning out worst set of policemen in the world.

Nonsense and Buhari.... mtcheew.!!!

Verdict: Lack of jobs is the reason people still queue up to Armed Forces in Nigeria......

Tribalism has done something terrible to you obviously.
We keep wondering why the s on this forum keep allowing such tribalistic post such as this to stand.
It will only encourage tribalistic souls to come up with more bs.
We hope something is done about this.
What an eyesore.
Sigh

Find alternative solutions to your problems.

For your info, northerners don't even like ing police. Go and find out how many northerners are in police. I don't mean Southerners who claim north to fill up the north's quota. I mean real Northerners from the north.
