UPDATE: PSC WORKERS’ UNION CALLS FOR REPLACEMENT OF IGP OVER ALLEGED RECRUITMENT CONTROVERSY
The Joint Union Congress of the Police Service Commission, has called on President Bola Tinubu, to relieve the Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, over his alleged meddlesomeness in the recent recruitment of police constables.
The union further claimed during a news conference in Abuja on Wednesday that certain senior Nigerian Police Force officers attempted to smuggle names during the hiring process.
Singing protest songs, the union’s irate members referred to the NPF’s responses as deceptive strategies.
They claim that NPF wants to keep the president from seeing how unfit the police training schools are to manage the recruits’ training because of the appalling conditions of the facilities.
This action follows the PSC’s recent release of 10,000 names of hired candidates from the commission’s most recent recruitment drive.
The NPF later rejected the list, claiming that the hiring procedure was dishonest.
