THE Police Service Commission (PSC) has announced the release of the list of successful applicants for the constable and specialist cadre roles in the Nigeria Police Force, with a total of 10,000 individuals selected from across the 774 Local Government Areas (LGAs) in the country.

According to Ikechukwu Ani, the PSC spokesperson, 9,000 applicants have been approved for recruitment into the general duty category, while 1,000 applicants have been selected for the specialist cadre.

The PSC chairman, Solomon Arase, emphasized that the selection process was highly competitive and rigorous, aimed at enhancing the capacity and effectiveness of the police force.
