The Police Service Commission said it will not cancel the list of successful candidates for recruitment into constables’ cadre in the Nigeria Police Force.
The Head of Press and Public Relations of PSC, Ikechukwu Ani, stated this in a statement on Tuesday in Abuja.
Mr Ani said the clarification was followed by the statement being circulated on the social media, alleging that, PSC had succumbed to pressure and cancelled the final list of successful candidates.
According to him, the statement did not emanate from PSC and urged the public to disregard it.
He added that the recruitment was conducted in clear adherence to relevant guidelines and provisions of the law.
He said the commission had just concluded a routine maintenance of its portal containing the list of the successful candidates.
Mr Ani stated, “The commission is in control of the situation and has since restored the recruitment portal with its original contents. Successful candidates are advised to ignore the deliberate antics of desperate groups bent on destroying the good work of the commission. The commission is committed to giving the nation a merit-based and inclusive recruitment exercise. It will continue to ensure that federal character, gender sensitivity and merit are the bedrock of its recruitment process.’’
He, therefore, urged those behind the circulated statement to desist from undermining the exercise, adding that, anyone caught would be dealt with.
“The portal is now fully functional and accessible hence, candidates can now log in and access its features without any disruptions. Mr Ani said
