Recruitment: Police set date for constable training commencement

The Police Service Commission (PSC) and the Nigeria Police Force have announced April 12, 2025, as the official start date for the training of successful candidates in the ongoing Constable recruitment process.

In a statement issued on Sunday in Abuja, the Head of Press and Public Relations at the PSC, Ikechukwu Ani, confirmed the development.

Ani urged applicants who participated in the recently concluded medical screening—held between February 26 and March 12—to check their application status for further directives.

According to him, such candidates must print their training call-up slip by logging onto the recruitment portal at https://apply.policerecruitment.gov.ng.

“The portal will be open from March 31.

“Successful candidates must report to their designated police training institutions on the date and time indicated on their call-up slip for documentation,” Ani stated.

He explained that the documentation period at training schools was scheduled for between 12 April and 19 April.

“Candidates who fail to report within this time frame will be considered to have declined the offer.”

He outlined that candidates must report in a clean white T-shirt and shorts.

The candidates are also to bring their training call-up slip, application form, submission slip, NIN slip, BVN slip, original and photocopies of certificates, and other required documents listed on the recruitment portal.

The PSC Chairman, Hashimu Argungu, congratulated the successful candidates and urged them to dedicate themselves to ensuring the security of lives and property.
