Abuja – The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) said it has extended the online registration for ongoing 2021 police constable recruitment to January 22 to allow more Southerners to apply for the jobs.

The Force Public Relations Officer, Frank Mba, who disclosed this in a statement said the extension beccame necessary “to ensure equal opportunity and even spread of applications, particularly from states in the South-East, South-South geopolitical zones and Lagos State.”

Mba who stated this in a statement in Abuja on Wednesday said the extension would enable the affected states to meet up with the required quota.

According to him, out of the 81,005 applications received nationwide as of January 7, 2022, only 1,404 applications (less than 2% of the total applications) were received from the five states in the South East.

He added that only 261 were from Lagos State, adding that Anambra has the least figure of just 158 applicants.
