The National Police Service Commission (NPSC) has opened recruitment for 10,000 qualified police constables.
In the notice, NPSC urged the public to report any incidents of recruitment malpractices to the nearest Police Station or call 0709099000, 999, 911, 112, or #fichuakwaDCI 0800722203.
This is the same step candidates should take if they feel that they have been unfairly disqualified during the recruitment process.
Candidates should ask the police officers in charge the main reason why they have been disqualified.
They should prepare evidence or documentation to challenge the reason.
Afterward, the candidates can write a formal appeal letter and submit it through any of the means given above.
