In an official statement released on Monday, SP Aya emphasized the importance of applicants being wary of individuals seeking to exploit them. He highlighted the upcoming CBT scheduled to take place from Tuesday 5th to Wednesday 6th March 2024, across designated centers specified by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB).
CP Bethrand C. Onuoha, the Commissioner of Police, conveyed his congratulations to the successful applicants selected for the CBT. However, he reiterated that the recruitment process remains entirely free of charge.
