PSC Extends Application For Police Recruitment By 2 Weeks
The Police Service Commission (PSC) has extended the ongoing recruitment of 50,000 police constables by two weeks.
It said that the application portal, which opened on December 15, 2025, will now close on February 8, 2026.
In a statement by the PSC spokesperson, Torty Njoku Kalu, the commission said the extension followed the receipt of over 400,000 applications and a review showing significant disparities in state participation.
The commission said this would ensure equitable representation, and urged eligible Nigerians, particularly from states with fewer applications to apply via the official portal: www.npfapplication.psc.gov.ng.
“While some states like Adamawa, Benue, and Kaduna have high application numbers, states such as Lagos, Ogun, Bayelsa, Ebonyi, and Anambra have notably lower submissions.”
The PSC also urged states and local governments, sociocultural organisations, religious bodies, community leaders, and other stakeholders to mobilize and sensitise eligible citizens within their jurisdictions to apply before the new deadline.
