According to a press release by the Nigeria Police Spokesperson, CSP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, mnipr, mipra, all candidates who took part in the recruitment screening examination are to check their application status and print out their medical screening slip, if qualified for the next stage of the recruitment screening exercise.
Consequently, the applicants are to appear at the various screening venues in their clean white T-shirts and shorts with the following mandatory basic requirements: National Identity Number (NIN); Original and photocopies of credentials – O’ Level Result(s), Certificate of Origin and Birth Certificate/Declaration of Age - neatly arranged in two white flat files with recent passport photographs attached; Printout of application submission confirmation page, duly completed Guarantor’s form and any candidate who fails to present the aforementioned requirements will not be considered for the screening.
