President Buhari has
warned the Nigerian police force to desist from extorting money from
individuals applying to be recruited into the police force.
He
gave the warning during a meeting with officials of the Ministry of
Police Affairs and the Police Service Commission in the Presidential
Villa, Abuja, after approving the recruitment of 10,000 policemen and
women, Punch reports.
“You
must ensure that the recruitment process is transparent. Those who will
conduct the recruitment must be above board. It should not be heard
that they receive gratification or extort money from those who want to
enlist in the police,” he said.
He
also explained that the recruitment of 10,000 policemen promised would
not commence immediately because there were guidelines and procedures to
be followed.
