146

The Police Service Commission (PSC) has refuted claims that it has launched a recruitment portal for the Nigeria Police Force.

The clarification was issued in a statement signed by Njoku Kalu, Head of Protocol and Public Affairs.

The Commission described the reports as the work of fraudsters attempting to mislead and exploit unsuspecting members of the public.

“The Police Service Commission wishes to state categorically that no recruitment exercise into the Nigeria Police Force is currently ongoing, and no such portal has been opened by the Commission,” the statement said

PSC explained that when recruitment officially commences, it will be announced through official channels.

“The public is strongly advised to disregard and ignore any such fake news and to only rely on information from official sources to avoid falling victim to scams.

“Any purported recruitment portal not published on the Commission’s official website is fraudulent and should be reported to the police accordingly,” the statement added.
