The Police Service Commission (PSC) says it has not cancelled the 2022 Police Constable recruitment exercise as alleged on social media.
It clarified that it has just concluded a routine maintenance of its portal containing the list of the successful candidates.
In a statement on Tuesday by the Head of Press and Public Relations, Ikechukwu Ani, the Commission disowned a statement circulating on social media alleging that it has succumbed to pressure and cancelled the final list of successful candidates.
He said, “the Commission has not and will not cancel the final list of successful candidates from the recruitment exercise which was conducted in clear adherence to relevant guidelines and provisions of the law.
“The Commission is in control of the situation and has since restored the Recruitment portal with its original contents”, Ani said.
He said, “successful candidates are advised to ignore these deliberate antics of desperate groups bent on destroying the good work of the Commission in giving the nation a merit based and inclusive recruitment exercise”.
Ani noted that the Commission would continue to ensure that Federal character, gender sensitivity, and merit are the bedrock of its recruitment process.
He, therefore, called on the “disgruntled elements to desist further from undermining the recruitment exercise as anyone caught will be dealt with”.
The Commission re-emphasized that the portal is now fully functional and accessible, affirming that candidates can now log in and access all its features without any disruptions.
While regretting the hitches, the Commission assured that it has fully secured the platform.
