The Police Service Commission (PSC) has rescheduled the date for the medical screening/examination of candidates applying into the Constable cadre of the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) from 2nd to 16th April.
The rescheduled date, PSC said, is due to the ongoing Muslim Ramadan fast and Christian Lenten season.
The screening will last two weeks and end the exercise.
The medical screening and examination of candidates are expected to be held in the 17 zonal command headquarters of the NPF.
The exercises scheduled for Kaduna, Yobe and Zamfara states have been accorded special consideration because of the security challenges in those states.
A statement yesterday in Abuja by PSC’s Head of Press and Public Relations, Mr. Ikechukwu Ani, said candidates from the three states are to do the screening and practical tests in their states of origin.
The statement said: “Due to the ongoing Muslim Ramadan fast and the Christian Lenten period, the date for the medical screening/examination for candidates for police recruitment into the Constable cadre of the Nigeria Police Force has been rescheduled to commence on Tuesday, 16th April 2024, to allow for the conclusion of these religious obligations”.
