PSC spokesperson, Torty Njoku Kalu, described the list currently circulating on social media as fake and urged applicants to ignore it.

The PSC also reiterated its commitment to a fair and merit-based recruitment process, noting that the quality of personnel recruited is important to the effectiveness of the Nigeria Police Force.
The commission further reminded applicants that the recruitment exercise is completely free and that no payment is required at any stage of the process.
