Police Recruitment: Prospective Candidates Don’t Know Name Of Nigeria President, CJN – DCP Laments

Sola Okediji, the Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP), FCT, has said that some constables aspiring to join Nigeria Police could not give the name of Nigeria President and the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN).

Okediji disclosed this at the investigation and sensitization on rule of law training for FCT police officers, organized by the Rule of Law and Anti-Corruption (RoLAC), on Friday in Abuja, NAN reports.

Okediji, who said he was posted to Rivers in Port Harcourt as part of those to interview prospective constables to be enlisted into the Nigeria Police, said he was stunned when a constable could not answer the question put to him.

He said that he had asked the prospective constable “what is the name of the President of Nigeria”, to which he could not proffer an answer.

Okediji also said that he posed another question to the intending constable as to “who is the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN),” to which he could not also answer the question.

The DCP said he had no choice than to fire the constable immediately, adding that the Nigeria police would not condole such ignorance, adding that such ignorance was unacceptable to the Nigeria Police.

Okediji said that some of the constables were parading five credits in their Senior Secondary School (SSCE) certificate without being able to defend it.

He said that those who were not fast in current affairs and do not know issues happening in the country would not be allowed into the police force.
